Mama Used to Say
Oooh
Yeah, yeah
Said a small boy once
Asked, "When will I grow up?"
"When will I see what grownups do see?"
Inspired to come of age
He would act an older age
To be recognized is
Quite another mess
And mama used to say
"Take your time young man"
And mama used to say
"Don't you rush to get old"
And mama used to say
"Take it in your stride"
And mama used to say
"Live your life"
As the years were rushing by
He will cut down on his age
He will tell his girl of how it used to be
How his mommy passed away
But this lines she would say
At the time
He couldn't understand
And mama used to say
"Take your time young man"
And mama used to say
"Don't you rush to get old"
And mama used to say
"Take it in your stride"
And mama used to say
"Live your life"
You're young, son Joe
Don't hold on back
Do what you want to do
Now is the time for you to strive
For you to get better in what you are doing!
Now is the time for you to strive
For you to get better in what you are doing!
As a small boy once asked
"When will I grow up?"
"When will I see what grownups do see?"
Inspired to come of age
He would act an older age
To be recognized is quite another mess
Hey mama used to say
"Take your time young man"
And mama used to say
"Don't you rush to get old"
And mama used to say
"Take it in your stride
Mama used to say
"Live your life"
"Live your life"
"Live your life"
Ooh, ooh
And mama used to say
"Take your time young man"
And mama used to say
"Don't you rush to get old"
And mama used to say
"Take it in your stride"
Mama used to say
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
