Hey Mama lyrics
Hey Mama, I wanna scream so loud for you, cause I'm so proud of you
And Let me tell you what I'm about to do, Hey Mama I know I act a fool but I promise you I'm goin' back to school And I appreciate what you allowed for me And I just want you to be proud of me. Hey Mama. [Verse 1] I wanna tell the whole world about a friend of mine This little light of mine and I'm finna let it shine I'm finna take ya'll back to them better times I'm gonna talk about my mama if ya'll don't mind I was 3 years old, when you and I moved to the Chi Late December, harsh winter gave me a cold You fixed me up somethin' that was good for my soul Famous homemade chicken soup, can I have another bowl? You work late nights just to keep on the lights Mommy got me training wheels so I could keep on my bike And you would give me anything in this world Michael Jackson leather and a glove, but didn't give me a curl And you never put no man over me And I love you for that Mommy can't you see? 7 years old, I caught you with tears in your eyes Cause a nigga cheatin' tellin' you lies then I started to cry As we knelt on the kitchen floor I said Mommy I'm a love you so you don't hurt no more And when I'm older, you ain't gotta work no more And I'm a get you that mansion that we couldn't afford See you're unbreakable unmistakable Highly capable, baby that's makin' loot A livin' legend too, just look at what heaven do Send us an angel, and I thank you. Hey Mama, I wanna scream so loud for you, cause I'm so proud of you And Let me tell you what I'm about to do, Hey Mama I know I act a fool but I promise you I'm goin' back to school And I appreciate what you allowed for me And I just want you to be proud of me. Hey Mama. [Verse 2] Forrest Gump mama said, life is like a box of chocolates My mama told me "Go to school get your doctorate." Somethin' to fall back on, you could profit with But still supported me when I did the opposite Now I feel like it's things I gotta get Things I gotta do, just to prove to you You was getting through, can the choir please Give me a verse of "You Are So Beautiful To Me" Can't you see? Your like a book of poetry. Maya Angelou, Nicky Jovanni, turn 1 page and there's my Mommy Come on Mommy just dance wit me, let the whole world see your dancing feet Now when I say "Hey" ya'll say "Mama" now everybody answer me. Hey Mama, I wanna scream so loud for you, cause I'm so proud of you And Let me tell you what I'm about to do, Hey Mama I know I act a fool but I promise you I'm goin' back to school And I appreciate what you allowed for me And I just want you to be proud of me. Hey Mama. [Breakdown] I guess it also depends though, if my ends low Second they get up you gon get that Benzo Tint the windows, ride around the city and let your friends know. Hey Mama. [Verse 3] Tell your job you gotta fake 'em out Since you brought me in this world, let me take you out to a restaurant Upper echelon I'm a get you a jag, whatever else you want Just tell me what kind of S-Type Donda West like? Tell me the perfect color so I make it just right It don't gotta be Mother's Day, or your birthday For me to just call and say "Hey Mama." I wanna scream so loud for you, cause I'm so proud of you Let me tell you what I'm about to do, Hey Mama. You know I love you so I never let you go I wrote this song just so you know no matter where you go my love is true.
