Little
mama,
little
mama,
Tell
me
what
is
wrong
with
you.
Little
mama,
little
mama,
What
more
do
I
have
to
do?
You
took
my
heart,
You
took
my
gold,
And
now
you
come
here
actin′
cold,
Little
mama,
What
else
do
you
want?
Little
mama,
little
mama,
You
think
you're
such
a
such
a
much!
Little
mama,
little
mama,
You
played
me
for
the
softest
touch!
You
left
me
here
without
a
dime,
You
got
my
life
rolled
out
on
time,
Little
mama,
What
else
do
you
want?
When
I
think
of
the
moment,
The
things
that
we
planned,
Everything
that
you
wish
for
became
my
command.
Bought
you
a
mansion,
Twelve
ten
acre
plot,
Your
own
private
ocean
for
your
platinum
yacht!
Little
mama,
Tell
me
what
is
wrong
with
you.
You
took
my
heart,
You
took
my
gold,
And
now
you
come
here
actin′
cold,
Little
mama,
What
else
do
you
want?
Your
own
crystal
ballroom,
Twenty
two
bands,
So
many
diamonds
you
ran
outa
hands!
Gold
plated
bathroom,
Tiles
made
of
fur,
A
dozen
towels
marked
"his"
And
ten
thousand
marked
"hers"!
Little
mama,
Tell
me
what
is
wrong
with
you.
You
took
my
heart,
You
took
my
gold,
And
now
you
come
here
actin'
cold,
Little
mama,
What
else
do
you
want?
A
king
size
bed,
A
colour
tv,
Your
own
private
channel
showin'
nothin′
but
me!
A
lavender
Cadi′,
Long
sleek
and
wide,
With
a
pastel
Thunderbird
that
hung
from
the
side!
Then
I
woke
one
mornin',
Feelin′
free
as
the
breeze,
Just
to
find
my
little
mama
put
me
in
the
deep
freeze!
Little
mama,
Tell
me
what
is
wrong
with
you.
The
day
will
come
and
you
will
see
I
won't
want
you
but
you′ll
want
me;
Little
mama,
you'd
better
change
your
ways!
