Hard for me to loveCHORUS:
Mama, Mama
Why is it hard, hard for me to love?
Mama, Mama
I have the scars that make it hard for me to love
Mama, Mama
You make it hard, make it hard for me to love
Mama, Mama
You gave me scars and here they are: the reasons why I cannot loveVERSE 1:
I was young
Younger than you knew
I was laboring
Under notions misconstrued
That this was love that you gave
Every night, all the same
Bend me over, beat me colderCold hands
Cold heart
Cold lips, never uttering a loving thing andCold arms is all that I began to know
I used to steal your lipstick
Just to feel like I was someone differenti snuck away but when you came
you made me smoke that pack of cigarettes, ii felt your power, i watched you tower
over me i hope you see all of your regrets nowChorusVERSE TWO:
she was older, older than me
and she took the blame for everythingyou were mean, you were cruel
made me watch her bleed for you
made me sit and cry, confess to lies you knew we didn't do
and
many men came and went
broken bottles and blood, and sweatand sex i saw it all
i watched you fall
i screamed the day you drowned her
and denied the things i sawi kept your letter, it said you loved me
and I believed it, can't say the same for NellyShe had her baby, this is number three
She's kind of like you, but I pray they turn out just like meChorus
