[Chorus]
Mama said that it was Cokay
GMama said that it was Bmquite alriEmght
Our kind of people have a Bmbed for the Emnight
And it was Dokay
Mama told us we are Cgood kids
GAnd daddy told us never Bmlisten to the Emones
Pointing nasty Dfingers and making Emfun
Cause we were good Dkids
[Verse 1]
Remember asking both my Emmom and dad
Why we never Dtraveled to exotic Glands
We only ever really visit Emfriends
Nothing to Dtell when the Gsummer ends
We never really went Embuying clothes
Folks were Dpassing on this stuff in Gplenty lords
New shoes once a Emyear and then
Out to play Dball so we could Gruin them
[Chorus]
Mama said that it was Cokay
GMama said that it was Bmquite alriEmght
Our kind of people have a Bmbed for the Emnight
And it was Dokay
Mama told us we are Cgood kids
GAnd daddy told us never Bmlisten to the Emones
Pointing nasty Dfingers and making Emfun
Cause we were good Dkids
[Verse 2]
Don't get me wrong I didn't Emhave it bad
I got enough Dloving from my Gmom and dad
But I don't think they really Emunderstood
When I said that I Dwanted the deal in GHollywood
I told them I'll be singing Emon TV
The other kids were Dcalling me a Gwannabe
The older kids they started Embugging me
But now they're all Dstanding right in Gfront of me
[Chorus]
Mama said that it was Cokay
GMama said that it was Bmquite alriEmght
Our kind of people have a Bmbed for the Emnight
And it was Dokay
Mama told us we are Cgood kids
GAnd daddy told us never Bmlisten to the Emones
Pointing nasty Bmfingers and making fEmun
Cause we were good Dkids
[Chorus]
I Emknow which Aplace I'm fromC
I know my Ghome
EmWhen I'm in Adoubt and strugglingC
That's where I Ggo
An old Emfriend can give adviceD
When new Cfriends only know a half Gstory
That's why I'm Emalways keep them tightD
And why I'm okayC
... I said I'm OK
You know what my mama said
You know what she told me
[Chorus]
Mama said that it was Cokay
GMama said that it was Bmquite alriEmght
Our kind of people have a Bmbed for the Emnight
And it was Dokay
Mama told us we are Cgood kids
GAnd daddy told us never Bmlisten to the Emones
Pointing nasty Dfingers and making Emfun
Cause we were good Dkids
