Like Mama Said

Cosmo Klein

My mama said try to be the best u better treat life with a little respect
My daddy said u can have it all but u better keep working till the curtain falls

and

what u´re gonna do today
and what u´re gonna say
might come back to u someway

what u´re gonna try today
and how you´re gonna play
might come back to u someway

so u better be

better be good just like you´re mama said

and my daddy said don´t take life for granted or u might end up nothin but stranded
and my mama said u should take a risk but u better be ready if the glove don´t fit
