Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, help me
Mama, mama, mama, mama, help me
Crazy mean crazy people on the street
Mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do
But I need a little help, can I make it on my own?
Mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do
Well some days I can and some days I can't
Mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do
You can't love 'em you can't trust 'em, you can't take 'em anywhere
You can't hold 'em you can't tell 'em that you ever really care
Mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do, I need your help
Tell me where will I go when I cannot go to you
And some days I just don't know where it is I'm at
Mean crazy mean half the people that you meet
Mama, mama, mama, mama, help me
Mama, mama, mama, mama, help me
Mama, mama, mama, mama, help me
What do you have to live with before you learn to grow up
I didn't live with nothin' that's worth talkin' about
But there is one thing that I really need to know
Mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do
But I didn't live with nothin' no I never went without
I've taken giant steps I've walked far away from home
Where I don't know when you go I'm going too, mama
Mama, mama, mama, tell me what to do
Mama, mama, mama, mama, help me
Mama, mama, mama, mama, help me
