Mama

Mama I don't ever want to see you cry



If then they knew him



They'd have passed right by



Oh Joseph's a man of many women, feel no way



Oh always remember you are the first of them



So oh Mama



If they could see where we are coming from



The other day



Then they would know just where they belong



If they could see where you're coming from



Just the other day



They would know just where they belong



Let stumbling blocks fall out of your way



Lord know, Lord knows your reward shall be great



They were broken off through their lack of faith



But because of your faith you are still in place



Woe Mama, if they could see where you're coming from



Just the other day



Then they would know just where you are coming from



If they could see where you are coming from



Just the other day



Then they would know just where they belong



Solo



Ah my children



Oh Mama



Fret not for me



I know Jah will be there



Eternally



If they could see where we are coming from



Just the other day



Then they would know just where they belong



If they could see where we are coming from



Then they would know just where they belong



Mama I don't ever want to see you cry



Ain't no lie



If then they knew him



They would have passed right by



So many called but you were chosen



And so you will remain outspoken



Oh Mama



If they could see where we are coming from



Just the other day



Then they would know just where they belong



Mama I don't ever want to see you cry



Ain't no lie



If then they knew him



They would have passed right by



So many called but you were chosen



And so you will remain outspoken



Oh Mama



If they could see where we are coming from



Just the other day



Then they would know just where they belong



If they could see where we are coming from



Just the other day



Then they would know just where they belong



Then they would know



Yes they would know
