That's What Mama Say - The Impressions

It won’t be long before I, venture this world all alone

That’s what Mama say

All that shines is not gold, people can be mighty cold

That’s what Mama say

Mama said there ain’t gonna be any roses

Popping up to lead the way

Watch out for the storm to come boy

'Cause the sun don’t shine every day

That’s what my Mama says (that's what Mama said)

You better take heed to her a ways

Now when you get a woman

Make sure she’s mighty nice

That’s what Mama say

Be good to your woman

And when day is done

Love her with all your might

That’s what Mama say

Mama say there ain’t gonna be any roses

Popping up to lead the way

Watch out for the storm to come boy

'Cause the sun don’t shine every day

That’s what my Mama say (that's what Mama say)

Take heed to her a ways

That’s what my Mama say (that's what Mama said)

That’s what my Mama say (that's what Mama said)

You better take heed (that's what Mama said)
