Mama told me not to try to be nobody I listened to her Mama told me I'd grow up to be somebody Looka here Savin money's hard when you can't save your soul I'll get through it Tryin to dig myself out of this mighty hole Listen to what I say Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya Now you know that's right I look down at my hands and I see labor burns It's a part of livin Keepin my feet on the ground while the world turns It's all on me Got my mind on the matter Sure as I tell ya Now you know that's right
