Mother May I

Mother may I

Oh, mother may I

I wanna go outside tonight

Tell me it’s alright

Mother may I

Mommy just listen

Something in the wind keeps calling me

And I’m old enough now to answer

I want everything that’s mine given all to me

I need your, your blessing

'Cause your baby was born to be out of control

You know it help me makes home safely

But I’m still not sure if I want to live to be old

Mother may I

Oh, mother may I

I wanna go outside tonight

Tell me it’s alright

Mother may I

Now mommy I know you’re watching

I’ve been a good boy, I never bring you shame

I’ll never know all your secrets

But it’s impossible for us not to be the same

Now I’ve got one chance y’all

To do whatever it is I’m suppose to do

And when you think I’m ready

Please make sure that I come back home with you

Mother may I

Oh, mother may I

I wanna go outside tonight

Tell me it’s alright

Mother may I

Mother may I

Oh, mother may I

Say I wanna be alive tonight

Tell me it’s alright

Mother may I

One way you can show you really love me is to let me go

Oh, but make sure that you tell my heavenly father I said hello

Mother may I

Oh, mother may I

I wanna go outside tonight

Tell me it’s alright

Mother may I

Mother may I

Oh, mother may I

Say I wanna be alive tonight

Tell me it’s alright

Mother may I
