Songtext von Hey Mama (Grammy Version)

Last night I saw you in my dreams Now I can't wait to go to sleep Last night I saw you in my dreams Now I can't wait to go to sleep My mama, mama, mama I wanna scream so loud for you, cause I'm so proud of you And let me tell you what I'm about to do I know I act a fool but, I promise you I'm goin back to school And I appreciate what you allowed for me and I I was three years old, when you and I moved to the Chi' Late December, harsh winter gave me a cold You fixed me up something that was good for my soul Famous homemade chicken soup, can I have another bowl? You work late nights just to keep on the lights Mommy got me training wheels so I could keep on my bike And you would give anything in this world Michael Jackson, leather and a glove, but didn't give me no curl And you never put no man over me And I love you for that mommy can't you see? Seven years old, caught you with tears in your eyes 'Cause somebody cheatin, telling you lies, then I started to cry As we knelt on the kitchen floor I said mommy I'ma love you till you don't hurt no more And when I'm older, you ain't gotta work no more And I'ma get you that mansion that we couldn't afford See you're, unbreakable, unmistakable Highly capable, lady that's makin loot A living legend too, just look at what heaven do Send us an angel, and I thank you Mama I wanna scream so loud for you, cause I'm so proud of you And let me tell you what I'm about to do Mama, you know I love you so, and I'll never let you go And I wrote this song just so you know that when you go Last night I saw you in my dreams Now I can't wait to go to sleep Last night I saw you in my dreams Now I can't wait to go to sleep Last night I saw you in my dreams Now I can't wait to go to sleep And this life is all a dream And my real life starts when I go to sleep My mama, mama, mama
