• 05- Mama I Gotta Brand New Thing (Don't Say No)

Sunday morning, I heard Mama pray
From her room I heard her say
"Good Lord, help my son find his way.
Lord, he just a country boy
He thinks the world's a great big toy
There ain't nothing he can't do (if he wants to).

He got himself a part-time job
Saved his money and bought him a guitar
Plays from sunup to sundown (hey, hey, hey).
(He don't wanna) go to school no more,
Won't do his household chores
But I'ma admit, the neighbors dig his sound (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah).

(He) got some some big ideas
Now he's talkin' 'bout leaving here
Going to a place called New York City
He's done told me,
'Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.' "

Mama said, "My son, my son, you're only sixteen
I know being a star is your dream
But I think it's time you stop all this foolin', and get to your schoolin'!"
When I'm in a state of frustration
Don't start preachin' that education 'cause
This guitar gon' make me a king

Above everything else, listen!...

Donned from head to toe
First class everywhere we go
Just give me a chance to do my thing

Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.
(Got a burnin' down deep inside, I wanna see my name's in lights
Please, please, please, let me go)
I can see it now...

Champagne and caviar
A black limousine, chauffeured car
Trips all around the world
And I have my choice of any girl!
People lined up as far as you can see,
Standing in line just to see me
Money stacked, clean up to the sky
Mom, ain't nothing that we can't buy
Have a little faith in me
And mama, I'm sure that you will see
That your son and his guitar are gonna go far!

Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.
Mama...

I gotta brand new thing
(Oh I) Gotta brand new thing (It's alright)

Tell me do you like my thing
(It's alright; I believe I like it; Do you like it)

If you like it, let me see you move
If you like it, let me see you groove
Let me see you move
Let me see you groove
Let's groove

Wait a minute!
I believe I'm ready to give you some help now
(We got a brand new thing, oh, we got a brand new thing)
Here it is!

Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.
