Eb Bb
Mama said that it was okay

Mama said that it was quite alright
Dm7 Gm
Our kinda people had a bed for the night
F
and it was okay
Eb Bb
Mama said that we were good kids
Dm7 Gm
and daddy told us never listen to the ones
Dm7 Gm
pointing nasty fingers and making fun
F
'cause we were good kids
Gm
Remember asking both my mom and dad
Eb Bb
Why we never travel to exotic lands
Gm
We only ever really visit friends
Eb Bb
Nothing to tell when the summer ends
Gm
We never really went buying clothes
Eb Bb
'cause folks were passing on the stuff in plenty loads
Gm
New shoes once a year and then
Eb Bb
Out to play ball so we could go in them

Don't get me wrong, I didn't have it bad
Eb Bb
I got enough loving from my mom and dad
Gm
But I don't think they really understood
Eb Bb
When I said that I wanted to deal in Hollywood
Gm
I told 'em I'd be singing on TV

The other kids were callin' me a wannabe

The older kids they started bugging me
Eb Bb
But now they're all standing right in front of me

Gm Dm
I know which place I'm from
Eb Bb
I know my home
Gm C
When I'm in doubt and struggling
Eb Bb
that's where I'll go

An old friend can give advice
Eb Bb
when new friends only know the half story

That's why I always keep 'em tight

I said I'm okay
You know what my mama said? You know what she told me?
