Mama said that it was oEbkay Bb
Mama said that it was qDm7uite alright Gm
Our kinda people had a bDm7ed for the niGmght
and it was okayF
Mama said that we were Ebgood kids Bb
and daddy told us never liDm7sten to the onesGm
pointing nasty fiDm7ngers and making fun Gm
'cause we were good Fkids
Remember asking both my Gmmom and dad
Why we never travel to eBbxotic lands
We only ever really visit Gmfriends
Nothing to tell when the suBbmmer ends
We never really went Gmbuying clothes
'cause Ebfolks were passing on the stuff in Bbplenty loads
New shoes once aGm year and then
Out to play ball so we could Bbgo in them
When mama said that it was oEbkay Bb
Mama said that it was Dm7quite alright Gm
Our kinda people had a Dm7bed for the nighGmt
and it was Fokay
Mama told us we were Ebgood kidBbs
and daddy told us never lDm7isten to the onesGm
pointing nasty Dm7fingers and making funGm
'cause we were good kidFs
Don't get me wrong, I didn't hGmave it bad
I got enough lEboving from my Bbmom and dad
But I don't think they really Gmunderstood
When I said that I wEbanted to deal in HBbollywood
I told 'em I'd be singingGm on tv
The other kidsEb were callin' Bbme a wannabe
The older kids they started Gmbugging me
But now they're all sEbtanding right in Bbfront of me
When mama said that it was oEbkay Bb
Mama said that it was Dm7quite alright Gm
Our kinda people had a Dm7bed for the nighGmt
and it was Fokay
Mama told us we were Ebgood kidBbs
and daddy told us never lDm7isten to the onesGm
pointing nasty Dm7fingers and making funGm
'cause we were good kidFs
GmI know which Dmplace im from
EbI know my Bbhome
GmWhen Im in doCubt and struggling
Ebthats wheBbre I'll go
An old Gmfriend can give adCvice
when new fEbriends only know the half sBbtory
That's why I alGmways keep 'em tighAmt
And while you're okEbay
I said I'm oFkay
(You know what my mama said? You know what she told me?)
When mama said that it was oEbkay Bb
Mama said that it was Dm7quite alright Gm
Our kinda people had a Dm7bed for the nighGmt
and it was Fokay
Mama told us we were Ebgood kidBbs
and daddy told us never lDm7isten to the onesGm
pointing nasty Dm7fingers and making funGm
'cause we were good kidFs
