They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name
Yeah, my momma was a rocker, way back in '53
Buys them old records that they sell on tv
And I know Chuck Berry wasn't singin' that to me
Sing Mama
That's all right
It's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life, your world
I watch that fortune wheel but never get to spin it
You made me promises, I don't think you meant it
If there's some sunshine, baby
I'm gonna get out in it, oh yeah
Mama
That's all right
It's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life, your world
I tried to leave but the traffic had been stopped
The beach was burnin' and someone was throwin' rocks
They said an aeroplane had fallen on my block, oh yeah
Mama
That's all right
It's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl, yeah
My life, your world
My life, your world
My life, your world
My life, your world
They came this mornin' with a dog on a chain They came and took my little brother away His generation never even got a name Yeah, my momma was a rocker, way back in '53 Buys them old records that they sell on tv And I know Chuck Berry wasn't singin' that to me Sing Mama That's all right It's your world Hey, this is my life She's my girl My life, your world I watch that fortune wheel but never get to spin it You made me promises, I don't think you meant it If there's some sunshine, baby I'm gonna get out in it, oh yeah Mama That's all right It's your world Hey, this is my life She's my girl My life, your world I tried to leave but the traffic had been stopped The beach was burnin' and someone was throwin' rocks They said an aeroplane had fallen on my block, oh yeah Mama That's all right It's your world Hey, this is my life She's my girl, yeah My life, your world My life, your world My life, your world My life, your world Explain Request ×
