(I see some pictures so that's why I was)
(Oh)
(Ok)
(All right)
Ooh
(We'll see you guys over there)
(All right, see you in a little bit)
See my mama told me stories when I was just a boy
She'd say go out in this world, find yourself some joy
You just might find someone someday
And if you're lucky, love is kind, she'll be the one to stay
A woman you can fight for
She fights for you just the same
Mm mm
She told me
Give her all your love
Don't you ever tell her lies
Give her all you have
Until the day you die
She said listen to your mama
I've never told you wrong
One day you'll find this girl
That you've been waiting for so
Long (long, long, long, long, long, long)
You've been waiting for so long
Well I'm going to make my mama proud
This woman's out there waiting to be found
I've been seeing her in every line I write
You picked a song to play, I sing it every night
'Til then I've searched the city low and high
Waiting for the day
When I know my mama turns out right
And I find the one to save me
We'll fall in love the way that lovers do
Then as we grow old
The stories they'll come true
Mm
Woah
Mm mm
Stories they'll come true
True, true, true
Well I'm going to make my mama proud
This woman's out there waiting to be found
And one day I will take her home
My heart would beat before but now I know it's whole
My heart would beat before but now I know it's whole
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ah
And one day I'll take her home
And one day I'll take her home
And I'll say Mama, how did you know?
