Mama has money now and Mama has friends

She's making rags for some uptown hags

I am full of guilt

You will never know how I ache

It won't take you so long
                     D
You can go where I'm at

You can hang around with me

Bridge:
D         A        D                      G
And a few good men will go where they ought
                       D  A
Where they ought not be
      D   A      D                   G
And a few good mothers go for what they
                         A D A
What they ought not teach
      D    A              D                  G
And I long for a touch or reminder of us, but
            D      A
But it must not be
      D                           G
And a few strong branches over water
                              D
Reach for what they ought not reach

Outro:
D
I hope your mother knows where it is you have been
D                                               Dm
I hope your mother knows what it is you have seen
          D
She'd be so proud
