          G      D            Em
My mamma told me,  when I was young,
             G     D         Em
Come sit beside me,  my only son
             G     D          Em
And listen closely, to what I say,
             G
 And if you do this,
        D              Em   G D Em D Em
it will help you, some sunny day
               G   D              Em
Oh, take your time, donʼt live too fast,
                G  D             Em
Troubles will come, and they will pass
               G   D                 Em
Well, find a woman, and youʼll find love,
             G
And donʼt forget son,
            D          Em
there is someone up above.

Forget your lust, for the rich manʼs gold,
              G  D            Em
All that you need is in your soul
             G      D       Em
And you can do this, if you try,
            G              D              Em
All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied.

Oh wonʼt you do this for me son if you can.
