| [00:11.95] |
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more, |
| [00:22.46] |
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me, My friend, the boy next door. |
| [00:48.67] |
I can't believe what people saying, You're gonna let your hair hang down, |
| [00:58.74] |
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long, You're in the darker side of town. |
| [01:28.99] |
And when I'm out I see you walking, Why don't your eyes see me? |
| [01:39.09] |
Could it be you've found another game to play, What did mama say to me? |
| [01:49.67] |
That's The Way, Oh, That's The Way it oughtta be, yeah, yeah, |
| [01:59.42] |
Mama say That's The Way it oughtta stay, yeah, yeah, ooh, ooh |
| [02:18.83] |
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river, |
| [02:23.80] |
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes? |
| [02:28.65] |
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying, |
| [02:33.96] |
Had they got you hypnotized? |
| [02:58.08] |
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers, |
| [03:02.82] |
But all that lives is born to die. |
| [03:07.79] |
And so I say to you that nothing really matters, |
| [03:12.64] |
And all you do is stand and cry. |
| [03:36.68] |
I don't know what to say about it, |
| [03:41.36] |
When all your ears are turned away, |
| [03:46.14] |
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see, |
| [03:51.05] |
Is that the way it ought to stay? |
| [03:56.52] |
That's the way... |
| [03:58.55] |
That's the way it oughtta be, oh don't you know now, |
| [04:05.92] |
Mama said, mama said... |
| [04:09.12] |
that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah. |
