Mama Never Knew — текст песни (Boy George)

Those early days who said

Patience never pays?

Its a mans world were living in

But that dont mean you have to start giving in



When he says, woman, theres a place for you

That dont mean thats what you have to do

Theres a gift somebody gave to you

Its called talking and saying out loud



My mama never knew but I do, I do

My mama never knew

Oh she never knew

But I do, yes I do

Oh my mama she never knew

Yes I do



It was late, late in life

When my mama started to fight

She said man, boy what the hell are you

Gonna break up this room with a word or two



If it seems I aint good enough for you

Then you know just what you have to do

Pack your bags honey, take your life with you

Go on walk out that door I wont say it no more



My mama never knew but I do, I do

My mama never knew

Oh she never knew

But I do, yes I do

Oh my mama she never knew

She never knew

Yes I do



Tied to the cross

Sometimes I feel like an anchor in your life

Im just a woman

But more than a woman I have in my life

She said, you bring me down

You turn me around

If theres a justice

I want justice in this life



My mama never knew but I do, I do

My mama never knew but I do

Yes I do



Those early days who said

Patience never pays?

Its a mans world were living in

But that dont mean you have to start giving in



When he says, woman, theres a place for you

That dont mean thats what you have to do

Theres a gift somebody gave to you

Its called talking and saying out loud



My mama never knew but I do, I do

My mama never knew

Oh she never knew

But I do, yes I do

Oh my mama she never knew

Yes I do



Just like a woman

She knows everything
