Songtext von Hey Mama

A little closer, please So I can hold your hand up to my face You know I’m ill at ease And I could use some warmth inside this place Mama, I’ve got a plan I’m gonna be a man and make this right Now won’t you take my hand And promise that you’ll think of me tonight I wanna go back to my home And I wanna be where a boy can be free But I’ve got time, I owe the state And I don’t think that I can wait Don’t turn your eyes from me I know these walls they always make me cry But ma I gotta see You look at me before we say goodbye I wanna go back to my home And I wanna be where a boy can be free But I’ve got time, I owe the state And I don’t think that I can wait Hey mama, it’s good to see ya I’m gonna need ya to pray for your son ‘Cause mama, I really miss ya And I promise the disappointment is done I wanna go back to my home And I wanna be where a boy can be free But I’ve got time, I owe the state And I don’t think that I can wait I wanna go back to my home And I wanna be where a boy can be free But I’ve got time, I owe the state And I don’t think that I can wait
