Hey Mama
A little closer please
So I can hold your hands up to my face
You know I'm ill at ease
And I could use some warmth inside this place
Mama I've got a plan
I'm gonna be a man and make this right
Now won't you take my hand
And promise that you'll think of me tonight
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
Don't turn your eyes from me
I know these walls, they always make you cry
But Ma, I gotta see
You look at me before we say goodbye
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
Hey Mama, it's good to see you
And I'm gonna need you to pray for your son
'Cause Mama, I really miss you
And I promise the disappointment is done
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
So I can hold your hands up to my face
You know I'm ill at ease
And I could use some warmth inside this place
Mama I've got a plan
I'm gonna be a man and make this right
Now won't you take my hand
And promise that you'll think of me tonight
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
Don't turn your eyes from me
I know these walls, they always make you cry
But Ma, I gotta see
You look at me before we say goodbye
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
Hey Mama, it's good to see you
And I'm gonna need you to pray for your son
'Cause Mama, I really miss you
And I promise the disappointment is done
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
I want to go back to my home
And I want to be where a boy can be free
But I got time I owe the state
And I don't think that I can wait
