Mama Lyrics


Verse 1:
Young Man/ thirteen/ running the streets/ Living his dreams of being Nino Brown/ Grandmother/ who pleaded the 5th/ Baby brother/ who needed him/ His little sister/ believed in him/ He needs to slow down/
Then what happens next is something we see of a movie screen/ Then his days as a nigga came to an end/ Police found him in a pool of blood, clinging onto life/ That boy looked up and he said/
Chorus:
Tell mama/ I'm sorry/ I was wrong/ (I was wrong yeah)/ Tell mommy/ I'm sorry/ I was wrong/
Verse 2: (Anthony Hamilton)
Young girl/ Sixteen/ Running/ The same streets/ Living her dream of being Foxy Brown/ And her teacher who/ Tested her/ And an uncle who/ molested her/ Heavenly father who/ Still blessing her/ She just chose to play around/ Then/ The pain was just too much/ Then/ We are just living today and dieing tomorrow/ Said a prayer/ Then closed her eyes/ Nodded slowly/ Then said wait God before I go/ Tell mama
Chorus:
Tell mama/ I'm sorry/ I was wrong/ (I was wrong yeah!)/ Tell mommy/ I'm sorry/ I was wrong/
Breakdown:
Somethings you can change/ Somethings you can't/ Somethings will never be the same/ Some people cry/ Some people fly/ Which one will you choose in your life?/ Mama you were right all along/ Mama I was wrong/ And another young lifes gone!

Jerry Vale's beautiful high-tenor voice graced many of the most enchanting pop songs of the '50s and '60s, including a parade of Italian-American favorites like "Innamorata (Sweetheart)," "Volare," "Amore, Scusami," and his signature song, "Al Di La." Vale, born Genaro Louis Vitaliano in 1932, learned the Italian repertoire from an early age; his mother often sang around the house and trotted out the old songs at extended-family gatherings. While shining shoes at a local barber shop at the age of 11, young Vitaliano began singing popular songs for customers while he worked.
