I don`t have a ph.d
I`m a simple man but if you ask me
About my philosophy
All I`d have to tell ya
Is I know wrong from right
It`s mostly black and white
But it does get grey sometimes
That`s when I remember
Daddy said bou when you`ve got to choose
Which road to take all you`ve got to do is
CHORUS
Make your mama proud
Let your mama know
You`d be nowhere without her prayers, faith, and hope
Make your mama smile
And know without a doubt
Everything works out
When you make your mama proud
There`s a million self-help books
Full of clever pop-psych hooks
I don`t give them a second look
You know they just confuse me
Now Dr. Phil and Dr. Ruth
They`re okay but to tell the truth
I think my daddy`s view
Is a lot less complicated
`Cause when you gotta problem, y`all you`ve gotta face it
But you can make this world a better place if you
REPEAT CHORUS
I guess Moses must have run out of tablet
Cause he left out the 11th commandment
Daddy said bou when you`ve got to choose
Which road to take all you`ve got to do is
REPEAT CHORUS
Yeah you`re gonna make your mama proud
make your mama proud
