Mama

Mama, mama, mama, whoa-oh, yeah

Mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, your love to me is priceless

For the pain and the strain I cause you
And to your nine months of labor, oh yeah
How could I ever repay you
For what you've done for me?

So, mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, your love to me is priceless

Father turned his back and went away
And he never ever looked back, oh no
Yet you played the part of a mother and a father
And brought me to what I am

So, mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, your love to me is priceless

I won't let you hold your head down
Nor will I let you wear a frown
I promise you, oh, you're gonna wear my crown

So, mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, your love to me is priceless

Mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, mama, your love is priceless to me
Worth more than gold, more than diamond or pearl

For the pain and the strain I cause you
And to your nine months of labor, oh yeah
How could I ever repay you
For what you've done for me?

So, mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, mama, your love is priceless to me

On the eleventh of Calypso I was born
But we help, and life must go on

Mama, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, mama, your love is priceless to me

The pain and the strain I cause you
And to your nine months of labor, oh yeah
How could I ever repay you
For what you've done for me?

So, mama, say, your love to me is priceless
Whoa-oh, mama, whoa-oh, you are the best
