The man is gone, and mama says That she can't live without him The man is gone, and mama says There is no life without him She has no one to stop her tears The man who heals and calms down her fears She needs to wake up In her man's arms And to be loved just like a child Ooh ooh Ooh ooh The man is gone, and mama says That she can't live without him The man is gone, and mama says There is no life without him How can I tell her the way I feel? I'm afraid she'd be hurt, and think It pisses me off It drives me mad That she lets herself feel so bad Ooh ooh Ooh ooh The man is gone, and mama says That she can't live without him The man is gone, mama says There is no life without Him.
