You Mama You letra

When I Was Young and Pushed Around
And Beaten Up and Beaten Down
Who'd I Run to Mama Tell Me Who

And As I Grew to Be a Man
And All the World Held Such Elan
I Did What I Thought I Just Had to Do

Chorus:
It Was You Mama You, It Was You All Along
It Was You I Ran Away From I Was Wrong
And If I Could I'd Change My Life
I Swear to God I'd Cut It Out With a Knife
And With a Glue Stick I'd Reapply It in a Song

And Laid Back Kerouac Never Had no Heart Attack
Drinking and Thinking About the Place That He Ran Back to
The Moloch Is An Old Man the Moloch Is a Love-lack
Bending For a Quick Snack Remembering His Friend Jack
Mama Sometimes and I Remember You

Chorus

Man Loves Woman
Mother Loves Child
Sometimes I Call My Lady Mama
So I Can Feel At Home For a While
So I Can Feel At Home For a While

Looking Around At All the Mellencamp Towns
The Excuses and the Nooses Where the Coffee Grounds
I Found Places and Traces of a Storybook World
And I Went Out There For a Ride
On the Misty Coast But the Holy Host
Is Under a Mickey D's American Flag and It's Unfurled

Chorus

Man Loves Woman Sometimes
Mother Loves Child
Sometimes I Call My Lady Mama
So I Can Feel At Home For a While
So I Can Feel At Home For a While
