Mama told me not to try to be nobody I listened to her Mama told me Id grow up to be somebody Looka here Savin moneys hard when you cant save your soul Ill 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 thats right I look down at my hands and I see labor burns Its a part of livin Keepin my feet on the ground while the world turns Its all on me Got my mind on the matter Sure as I tell ya Now you know thats right
