Hey Mama Mama used to take me across her lap She used to hit me with a trap When I was bad. I didn't know at the time Being bad could lead to crime But now I'm glad Well she kept me on the double I stayed out of trouble And now I understand She said son you've got to give a heck Promise you'll always give respect to the other man When I used to make fun of others She'd say no not to your brothers And that ain't all When someone is feeling low Think of the nicest things you know To make them feel tall I never forget what mama said When she kneel down and pray For the Father's guiding hand Throw your arms around his neck Make him proud to give respect to the other man Oh now that I'm a man God has taken my mother's hand And now I'm carrying on Oh sometimes I'll have to weep Mother's love I'll always keep Cause she made me strong And if should ever have a son We gonna have lots of fun And I'll teach him to understand She said son you got to give a heck Promise you'll always give respect to the other man
