Mama used to tell me Be careful what you do Just walk the way of kindness And always tell me truth No matter how your life’s No matter who your wife’s Be good
The ticket in my pocket The suitcase in my hand I’m going to nowhere To find another land I’m thinking of my life I’m thinking of my life To be good
Be good mama told me Be good always warned me Be good never hurt no one Be good
Heaven is above me Love is in my heart Care for somebody Nothing’ wrong with that When I was a child I heard my mama’s cry Be good
Be good mama told me Be good always warned me Be good never hurt no one Be good
If the world is cruel You know what to do Life is in your hands Everything is up to you Always be good...
Be good mama told me Be good always warned me Be good never hurt no one Be good Always be good...
