MOTHER, SISTER, FRIEND,
HOW DID I THINK YOU'D BE HERE TILL THE END?
WHEN THE NIGHT IS LONG
I RECALL YOUR SONG,
AND BEFORE I KNOW THE MORNING COMES AGAIN.
HEARIN'
MAMA WILL MAKE IT BETTER.
MAMA MAKES EVERYTHING OK.
COME THE WIND AND WEATHER,
YOU'LL LIVE TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY.
MAMA DON'T NEED PERMISSION.
MAMA WILL KEEP THE WOLVES AT BAY.
WHATEVER HER MIND AND MISSION,
GET IN LINE, OR CLEAR THE WAY.
DAUGHTER, SISTER, FRIEND,
NOW YOU'RE A MOTHER TOO.
THE CIRCLE HAS NO END.
WHEN THE WORLD GOES BLIND,
HOW WILL HUMANKIND
BE REMINDED OF THE THINGS THEIR MAMAS SAID?
SINGIN'
MAMA WILL MAKE IT BETTER.
MAMA MAKES EVERYTHING OK.
COME THE WIND AND WEATHER,
YOU'LL LIVE TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY.
MAMA DON'T NEED PERMISSION.
MAMA WILL KEEP THE WOLVES AT BAY.
WHATEVER HER MIND AND MISSION,
GET IN LINE, OR CLEAR THE WAY.
WHEN YOU PLANT HOPE IN THE GROUND
AND HOLD A PICTURE IN YOUR MIND
OF HOW YOUR CHILDREN AND THE WORLD WILL SOMEDAY BE,
YOU TRY TO BUILD A ROOF
TO SHADE THE SEEDLING FROM THE SKY,
UNTIL YOU REALIZE YOU HAVE TO SET THEM FREE.
MAMA CAN'T MAKE IT BETTER.
YOU'VE GOTTA MAKE IT ALL OK.
COME THE WIND AND WEATHER,
YOU'LL LIVE TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY.
YOU DON'T NEED PERMISSION.
YOU'VE GOTTA KEEP THE WOLVES AT BAY.
WHATEVER YOUR MIND AND MISSION,
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE THE DAY.
