I straddled my bicycle when I was ten years old  I rode it up on Maxwell Hill where all the big boys go  Way down at the bottom there's a creek bed six feet wide  If you peddle fast enough you can make the other side    Mama come quick I think I fell  And hurt myself again  Mama come quick you know too well  How much I still depend on you  Pickin' me up and dustin' me off  And sendin' me on my way  'Cause nothing heals as much as your lovin' touch    I fell in love for the first time when I was almost grown  I heard that love could hurt real bad, though I had not been shown  Everybody told me she would only break my heart  But I wouldn't listen to them 'cause I was way too smart    Mama come quick I think I fell  And hurt myself again  Mama come quick you know too well  How much I still depend on you  Pickin' me up and dustin' me off  And sendin' me on my way  'Cause nothing heals as much as your lovin' touch    Yeah daddies teach us how to ride  How to catch and throw  But when things don't go the way they should  A boy knows where to go    Mama come quick I think I fell  And hurt myself again  Mama come quick you know too well  How much I still depend on you  Pickin' me up and dustin' me off  And sendin' me on my way  'Cause nothing heals as much as your lovin' touch    Oh mama come quick  I need your lovin' touch  Yeah mama come quick  I need your lovin' touch
