Mama Used To Say

Mumzy Stranger & Junior

And mama used to say: "Take your time young man"

And mama used to say: "Don't you rush to get old"

And mama used to say: "Take it in your stride"

And mama used to say: "Live your life"

Said a small boy once asked: "When will I grow up?"

When will I see what grownups do see?"

In his strive to become a man, he will act an older age

To be reconized as man among the men

And mama used to say: "Take your time young man"

And mama used to say: "Don't you rush to get old"

And mama used to say: "Take it in your stride"

And mama used to say: "Live your life"

As the years where rushing by

He will cut down on his age

He will tell his girl of how it used to be

Now, his mama past away

But this lines she would say

At that time he couldn't understand

And mama used to say: "Take your time young man"

And mama used to say: "Don't you rush to get old"

And mama used to say: "Take it in your stride"

And mama used to say: "Live your life"

You're young, so enjoy, so hold on back

Do what you want to do

Now is the time for you to strive

For you to get better in what you are doing!

And mama used to say: "Take your time young man"

And mama used to say: "Don't you rush to get old"

And mama used to say: "Take it in your stride"

And mama used to say: "Live your life"

And mama used to say: "Take your time young man"

And mama used to say: "Don't you rush to get old"

And mama used to say: "Take it in your stride"

And mama used to say: "Live your life"
