Mama

She'll always say that she's doing just fine
And then she'll tell me it's just a matter of time, yeah
Before every little thing start to going her way
Still I'd love to brighten up her day
Hear me say, hear me say
Let me lighten the load today
Let this feeling stay, I pray, always, hear me say
Always, yeah, always, always, always, yeah
Holds everything so deep inside her
Never shares her pain with nobody else
She's always going on like she's gonna make it all on her own, yeah
Someday she's gonna need some help
Ooooh, lemme carry some of the burden
Won't you let me carry it tonight, yeah
Won't you let me do the little I can do, to help you through, yeah
Oh Mama, let me help you tonight
You carried me, lemme carry you
You were my strength, yeah, so I'll be strong for you
You're gonna make it, no matter what they do
No matter what they throw at you
I'm gonna help you through
She'll always say, that she's doing just fine
And then she'll tell me, it's just a matter of time
Before every little thing starts to going her way, listen
Still I'd love to brighten up her day, hear me say, yeah
Let me lighten the load today
Let this feeling stay, I pray, always
Hear me say always, always, always, forever and a day I say
Always, yeah
She's got a heart just like a lion
Resolute and strong for all to see
But every now and then, she needs someone
To help her along, yeah
By God, that someone ought to be me
Oh, lemme carry some of the burden, yeah
Won't you let me carry, carry it tonight
Won't you let me do, the little bit I can do
To help you through, yeah
Oh Mama, let me help you tonight
You carried me, lemme carry you
You were my strength, yeah, so I'll be strong for you
You're gonna make it, no matter what they do
No matter what they throw at you
I'm gonna help you through, through
Yeah you carried me, lemme carry you
You were my strength, so I'll be strong for you
You're gonna make it, no matter what they do
No matter what they throw at you, I'm gonna help you through
