Tell Mama

You thought you had found a good girl,

One to love you and give you the world

Now you find that you been misused,

Talk to me,

I'll do what you choose.

Tell Mama, all about it, tell

Mama, what you need

Tell Mama, what you want and how that girl does things all right

The girl you had didn't have no sense,

She wasn't worth all the time you spent

She had another man throw you outdoors,

Now the same man is wearing your clothes.

She would embarrass you anywhere,

She let everybody know she didn't care

Give me a chance

I been begging you

I just want to take care of you.

Tell your

Mama, what you want, tell your

Mama, what you need

Tell your

Mama, what you got to have
