Lyrics
What Mama Said
Words and Music by Rob Niemi
Woke up one night in a stranger's bed
Never saw her face, only the back of her head
Lord knows, I never will forget what my mama said
"Be careful you sleep--you might wake up dead"
Most times your past is better left behind
Like the memories hidin' out in the back of your mind
Mmm, hmm
Sometimes I fight and I lose my head
But Lord knows, I never will forget what my mama said
She said
If you want the good Lord to keep your soul
Then you can't let that devil take control
If you wanna live the good life and sleep well at night
Don't spend your days just wasin' away and do what you know is right
That's right, that's right, that's right
That's right
That's right, that's right
That's right, that's right
Mmmm
(Chorus)
