Mama

Mama leave your front door open tonight Don't know when I'll be back or if I'll be alright But I do figure on being pretty late So Mama leave your front door open tonight I've seen a lot of things that made me blink For instance take the ants across the kitchen sink Now the mountains and the desert Stand mighty proud and tall But they just don't compare to this feeling at all I used to stand up straight I felt pretty strong I knew who I was till he came along And he taught me some things I never knew Now I don't know what to do What to do? Oh, Ma he makes me feel like a bed of hot coals He hit me so hard he left me full of holes So just give me a smile and everything will be alright Mama leave the front door open tonight.
