TITLE: MAMA, WHAT DO I DO?
MAMA, WHAT DO I DO?
We've never really talked that much,
And I know I've never made you proud,
And I've always done things I shouldn've,
Mama like you said I'm regretting it now.
When you're young you just don't realize,
They say you just gotta live and learn,
You're gonna grow up someday,
But the hands of time just can't be turned.
I didn't appreciate you like I should've,
And you deserved so much more than I gave,
Now looking back I really had it all,
But I realized it just a little too late.
Mama, What do I do?,
Only you know what I'm going thru,
I know we can't go back,
And what I've done I can't undo,
Mama, What do I do?
I promise I'll be just like my brother,
I need you now more than I ever have,
Cause looking back you were the perfect mother.
P.S. Mom thank you, and from what's left of my heart,
I Love You
Cause now I know, You were a perfect mother.
