Look Mama

Look mama

I love you

But you gotta let me live my life.

Look mama

I love you

But you gotta let me live my life.

Don't wrap me up in cotton wool

You cannot treat me like a fool.

Anyway if I was

You gotta let me be the one.

O.k.

Give me your advice

It's not my fault if I can't be wise

Show me a person who hasn't been done.

Look mama

I love you

But you gotta let me live my life. . . .

Don't try to stick your rules on me

I wasn't born as a carbon copy.

I came out of you

But don't think you own me.

I have my respect for you

I won't try to change

The things you do. Give me a break

Let me learn it my way. You think you know more

Than me

Experience hasn't set you free.

Look mama

I love you

Look mama look

Look mama look.

Look mama

I love you

Look mama look

Look mama look.

I gotta make my own mistakes

Why can't you treat me like a friend?

Look mama

I love you

But you gotta let me live my life. . . .

Look mama

I love you

Look mama look

Look mama look

Look mama look.

Look mama

I love you

Look mama look

Look mama look

Look mama look.
