Mama Said Lyrics - Lukas Graham

1 When Mama said that it was okay

2 Mama said that it was quite alright

3 Our kind of people had a bed for the night

4 And it was ok

5 Mama told us we are good kids

6 And daddy told us never listen to the ones

7 Pointing nasty fingers and making fun

8 'Cause we were good kids

9 Remember asking both my mom and dad

10 Why we never traveled to exotic lands

11 We only ever really visit friends

12 Nothing to tell when the summer ends

13 We never really went buying clothes

14 Folks were passing on this stuff plenty loads

15 New shoes once a year and then

16 Out to play ball so we could ruin them

17 When mama said that it was okay

18 Mama said that it was quite alright

19 Our kind of people had a bed for the night

20 And it was ok

21 Mama told us we were good kids

22 And daddy told us never listen to the ones

23 Pointing nasty fingers and making fun

24 'Cause we were good kids

25 Don’t get me wrong I didn’t have it bad

26 I got enough loving from my mom and dad

27 But I don’t think they really understood

28 When I said that I wanted the deal in Hollywood

29 I told them I'll be singing on TV

30 The other kids were calling me a wannabe

31 The older kids they started bugging me

32 But now they all standing right in front of me

33 When mama said that it was okay

34 Mama said that it was quite alright

35 Our kind of people had a bed for the night

36 And it was ok

37 Mama told us we were good kids

38 And daddy told us never listen to the ones

39 Pointing nasty fingers and making fun

40 ‘Cause we were good kids

41 I know which place I'm from

42 I know my home

43 When I’m in doubt and struggling

44 That’s where I go

45 An old friend can give advice

46 When new friends only know a half story

47 That’s why I’m always keep them tight

48 And why I'm okay

49 …I said I'm OK

50 You know what my mama said

51 You know what she told me

52 My mama said that it was ok

53 Mama said that it was quite alright

54 Our kind of people had a bed for the night

55 And it was ok

56 Mama said that we were good kids

57 And daddy told us never listen to the ones

58 Pointing nasty fingers and making fun

59 ‘Cause we were good kids

60 Mama said that it was okay

61 Mama said that it was okay

62 When mama said that it was okay
