Mama Say - The Heptones

'mama say

Son, I ain’t got no food today

Tit for tat, butter for fish

There’s a little porridge in the dish

Mama say

Son, you’ve got to stay home today

There’s a hole in the roof

You’ve got to make it waterproof

Son, daddy left you were from you were four

I’ve got to struggle 'cos I am poor

She said, food is a very hard thing to find

Sometime I feel like I’m going out of my mind

Mama say

Son, today look like a rainy day

But the food I ain’t got enough

Rain a fall but dutty tough'
