Dear child keep workingA
don t ever think you can tB
dear child never accept bad cantC
dear child keep goingA
God is always behindD
That was mama's adviceE
-
My mama s word was an everyday melodyB
I heard and danced to the soundF
but was nothing to my memoryB
I was confoundedG
drowned by the silent soundF
and I couldn t be picked or foundF
-
I spent years against the word of mamaH
I was lost I couldn t see my eyesI
I was moving up and down like a swingA
Since there was no place to extend toJ
I was like people of MosesK
no destinationL
there was no one to speak toJ
no aegisK
I m sorry mamaH
I was disobedientM
I am sorry mamaH
I pleaded to my mama s absenceN
-
My tears pleaded on my behalfO
Dear child dear child dear childP
My ear heard the voice from mama s mouthQ
dear child there s always a second chanceR
the sun can still visit the southQ
just call on your deity he s behindD
pray and work hardS
this maybe the last chanceR
a word is enough for the wiseI
