Mama Lyrics by Beth Hart
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Mother may I? And I would say
Yes, sweet baby, take it away
It won't be long
Just, just remember that
Powerful is the woman in you
And stay true now

And she'd come to me
When fire and water was gone
To caress the empty with a song
Saying "Why cry for anger?
That bullet the sky
Just remember"
And I'll remember
And mama and I'll get by

And I know my face
Seems crazed and wild
But I got her eyes
The mama's child am I
She's blessed with grace
Is smooth as a line
And when I shade
She helps me shine
And she comes to me
When there's nothing I believe
And holds me so high

Yes, I am free
Saying "Why hold the anger?
It won't let you fly
Just remember"
And I'll remember
'Cause mama
Mama and I'll get by

Confused by my own illusion
She said that it's only my pride
And even the simplest solutions
Still won't heal my mind
So I'll remember
I'll remember
And I'll get by.
Mother may I? And I would say   Yes, sweet baby, take it away   It won't be long   Just, just remember that   Powerful is the woman in you   And stay true now      And she'd come to me   When fire and water was gone   To caress the empty with a song   Saying "Why cry for anger?   That bullet the sky   Just remember"   And I'll remember   And mama and I'll get by      And I know my face   Seems crazed and wild   But I got her eyes   The mama's child am I   She's blessed with grace   Is smooth as a line   And when I shade   She helps me shine   And she comes to me   When there's nothing I believe   And holds me so high      Yes, I am free   Saying "Why hold the anger?   It won't let you fly   Just remember"   And I'll remember   'Cause mama   Mama and I'll get by      Confused by my own illusion   She said that it's only my pride   And even the simplest solutions   Still won't heal my mind   So I'll remember   I'll remember   And I'll get by.
