Mamma
Am gonna do my best againAm gonna go my way, mammaTomorrow am gonna catch a trainDon't try to hold me downI wanna put my chest against the windFrom east and west once againMammaGive me your blessing right now
Am gonna get ahead againAm gonna go my way, mammaBefore you tie me to a chainBefore you close me downSo wide you should stretch your breastAnd hold my life inside yourself againMammaGive me your blessing right now
I wanna kiss your face againAm gonna go my way, mammaDon't worry, don't cry, don't complainDon't try to hold me downHow much you want your darling, babyClinging to your long skirt againOh, mammaGive me your blessing right now
