You thought you had found a good girl,
One to love you and give you the world
Now you find that you been misused,
Talk to me, I´ll do what you choose.
I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want and I´ll make everything all right
That girl you had didn´t have no sense,
She wasn´t worth all the time you spent
She had another man throw you outdoors,
Now the same man is wearing your clothes.
I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want and I´ll make everything all right
She would embarrass you anywhere,
She let everybody know she didn´t care
Give me a chance I been begging you
I just wanna take care of you.
I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want, tell Mama
What you want right now, tell me
Tell your Mam... [fade]
Tell your Mama, what you got to have
One to love you and give you the world
Now you find that you been misused,
Talk to me, I´ll do what you choose.
I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want and I´ll make everything all right
That girl you had didn´t have no sense,
She wasn´t worth all the time you spent
She had another man throw you outdoors,
Now the same man is wearing your clothes.
I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want and I´ll make everything all right
She would embarrass you anywhere,
She let everybody know she didn´t care
Give me a chance I been begging you
I just wanna take care of you.
I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want, tell Mama
What you want right now, tell me
Tell your Mam... [fade]
Tell your Mama, what you got to have
