Edie Brickell & New Bohemians - Mama Help Me lyrics

If a child lives with crazy he goes out of his mind

I didn't live with nothin' that's worth talkin' about

But I didn't live with nothin' no I never went without

But there is one thing that I really need to know

What do you have to live with before you learn to grow up

Mama, mama, mama, mama help me

Mama, mama, mama tell me what to do

I've taken giant steps I've wlaked far away from home

But I need a little help can I make it on my own

Some days I can and some days I can't

And some days I just don't know where it is I'm at

Mama, mama, mama, mama help me

Mama, mama, mama tell me what to do

Mama, mama, mama, mama help me

Mama, mama, mama tell me what to do

Crazy mean crazy people on the street

Mean crazy mean half the people that you meet

You can't love 'em you can't trust 'em

You can't take 'em anywhere

You can't hold 'em you can't tell 'em

That you ever really care

Tell me where will I go when I cannot go to you

Where I don't know when you go I'm going too

Mama, mama, mama, mama help me

Mama, mama, mama tell me what to do

Mama, mama, mama, mama help me

Mama, mama, mama tell me what to do

Mama, mama, mama, mama help me

Mama, mama, mama tell me what to do

Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy help me

Daddy, daddy, daddy tell me what to do
