Junior - Mama Used To Say lyrics

rate me

Said a small boy once<br />

asked:"When will I grow up?"<br />

When will I see what grownups do see?"<br />

And he's bout to come his age<br />

he will act another age<br />

to be reconized is<br />

quite another mess<br />

<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take your time young man"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Don't you rush to get old"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take it in your stride"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Live your life"<br />

<br />

As the years where rushing by <br />

he will cut down on his age,<br />

he will tell his girl of how it used to be.<br />

How his mommy past away<br />

but this lines she would say<br />

at the time <br />

he couldnt understand<br />

<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take your time young man"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Don't you rush to get old"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take it in your stride"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Live your life"<br />

<br />

You"re young son Joe dont hold all back,<br />

do what you want to do.<br />

Now is the time for you to strive,<br />

For you to get better in what you are doing!<br />

<br />

As a small boy once asked,<br />

"When will I grow up?"<br />

When will I see what grownups do see?"<br />

At a time to come to come of age<br />

he will act another age,<br />

To be reconized is quite another mess!<br />

<br />

Hey mama used to say:<br />

"Take your time young man"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Don't you rush to get on"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take it in your stride<br />

Mama used to say, Hey Hey<br />

Hey Hey Hey-ey<br />

<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take your time young man"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Don't you rush to get on"<br />

And mama used to say:<br />

"Take it in your stride"<br />

And mama used to say,<br />

Mama used to say, Oh Oh<br />

Oh Oh Oh<br />

Oh Oh<br />

Oh Oh Oh-wo-oh
