What Would My Mama Say

You don't know what it's about, but you go out and try



You're young and your wings have just feathered



And you're dying to fly



Dreaming is easy, but living is hard I'm afraid



I come from South Georgia



And I feel like I walked all the way



How much does it cost to Valdosta



How much for just a part of the way



Lord I'm tired and I'm hungry



And I ain't got much money



What would my mama say



Sometimes the notion comes,



One wants to just run away



From all that he's bothered by



Little things, day after day



Sometimes the rain is cold



Sometimes the sun shines down



Life's just a ball game that can't be played all in one town



How much does it cost to Valdosta



How much for just a part of the way



Lord I'm tired and I'm hungry



And I ain't got much money



What would my mama say



How much does it cost to Valdosta



How much for just a part of the way



Lord I'm tired and I'm hungry



And I ain't got much money



What would my mama say



What would my mama say
