Tell me, mama
Is your life a better change?
And tell me, mama
Would you live your life the same
Or come back and rearrange?
Tell me, mama, how is freedom?

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be

Tell me, mama
Are the colors deeper shades?
And tell me, mama
Are there great big brass parades?
Does the Sun shine night and day?

Tell me, mama
No more sleeping
Tell me, mama
No more weeping

Thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Hey, mama
Hey, no-no

No-no-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no-no

No-no-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no-no

Tell me, mama
Is it just the way they say? (Tell me, mama)
And tell me, mama
Are you missing me the way
That I'm missing you today?
Tell me, mama, can you hear me?

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh, I'm thinking of you
Thinking of you
Thinking of you
Thinking of you

Thinking of you
