Well let's put it up, mama
Let's put it up over there
Let's put it up, mama
Put it on the shelf
You been gone away so long now
I hardly remember you
I'm going outside now
Going to take a walk
I may walk for an hour
Sit on down and stare
What you doing to me mama
Let's put it up over there
It's the same kind of stare
Looking up over there
Let's put it up mama
I can't take you down again
Every time I see a hope
Breaking down again
Oh mama, mama
Mama, mama
Let's put it up, please do
Instead of talking to myself
I should be talking to you
