Junior - Mama Used To Say [American Instrumental Mix] lyrics

Ooh Yeah, girl Said a small boy once asked, When will I grow up When will I see what grownups do see In his fight to come of age, he would have to know the age To be recognized is when I'm not unmasked And mama used to say, Take your time, young man Mama used to say, Don't you rush to get old Mama used to say, Take it in your stride Mama used to say, Live your life As the years went rushin' by he would cut down on his age He would tell his girl of how it used to be How his mommy pa**ed away, but these lines she would say And at the time he couldn't understand Mama used to say, Take your time, young man Mama used to say, Don't you rush to get old Mama used to say, Take it in your stride Mama used to say, Live your life You're young, so young, don't hold on back Do all you want to do Now is the time for you to stride For you to get better in what you are doin', oh Now is the time for you to stride For you to get better in what you are doin', oh A small boy once asked, When will I grow up When will I see what grownups do see In his fight to come of age, he would have to know the age To be recognized is when I'm not unmasked And mama used to say, Take your time, young man Mama used to say, Don't you rush to get old Mama used to say, Take it in your stride Mama used to say, Live your life, live your life, live your life, oh Hey, mama used to say, Take your time, young man Mama used to say, Don't you rush to get old Mama used to say, Take it in your stride Mama used to say, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Ooh Ooh Mama used to say, ooh Mama used to say, ooh Mama used to say, ooh Mama used to say, ooh Mama used to say
