Mamas put your babies to sleep, too cruelsome for them this is. In Junior high she said goodbye to her parents and ran away with a boy. She left her family warm and kind, all of her friends said \"you're out your mind\". of her own she would find, it's monday and she's gotta grind.
A Job as a waitress she sure was to find, beautiful face, mind of a child. Boy her pregnant, Mary-Lou cried,\" For this I am too young oh why did you You said \"it's okay if we do it today\", I was so scared that you would away. \"Despite all the papers been signed, mama take me back be so kind\".
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again. He promised the moon but won't marry you. Nothing to do, eating for he's goin' out with someone new. Sunshine or rain, it's all the same, life isn't gray oh
Mamas do your children still sleep, in the safe of their cradles so sweet. Story I told you I forseen, Your little angel ain'talways so Days to come aren't easy to see, You can change 'em butit isn't free. I see that you don't believe, ooo-oo, but you will see.
