Lyrics Kovacs – Mama & Papa
Text:
I have prayed, I have prayed ’til you’re gone
When I pray, I found your God or so I thought
You told me «Let go, he will never come home»
So I’ve been running, I’ve been running, I’ve been running on my own
Mama, mama, when I was born
Where was daddy and why did he go?
Was he no good to you, mama?
Did he have a different agenda? Oh
Mama, mama, do we look alike?
Do you see him when I squeese my eyes?
What does it do to you, mama?
Do I remind you of papa? Oh
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
Every time you’re done praying
You’ve got much stronger than me, oh
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
I had my face in the dirt
When you were going to church
When you were going to church
I have sinned, I have sinned to your God
And when I sinn, I found my God, or so I thought
I had to let go, I don’t wanna go home
And I keep running, keep running, keep running on my own
Mama, mama, when I was born
Where was daddy and why did he go?
Was he no good to you, mama?
Did he have a different agenda? Oh
Mama, mama, do we look alike?
Do you see him when I squeese my eyes?
What does it do to you, mama?
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
Every time you’re done praying
You’ve got much stronger than me, oh
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
I had my face in the dirt
When you were going to chur- hmm
Prai- praise the lord (ho, ho)
Oh, hallelujah (ho, ho)
Hallelujah, oh, hallelujah (ho, ho)
Ho, amen (ho, ho)
Mama, mama, when I was born
Papa wondered, he left us alone
He was no good to you, mama
He had a higher agenda, ho
Mama, mama, we look alike
But don’t you see, you wanna squeese my eyes
It means nothing to mama
I got my mind out of poppa, oh
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
Every time you’re done praying
You’ve got much stronger than me, oh
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
I had my face in the dirt
When you were going to chur-
Praise the lord
Amen
