Lyrics

Mama said
Words and Music by Jeff Jolly
© 1995

Mama said keep on movin’
keep those dreams in your head
Mama said keep on movin’
keep those dreams burnin’ in your head
Only thing that will keep you going ‘til you’re dead

Don’t hitch on no one’s ride
Stay on a path of your own
Don’t hitch on no one’s ride
Stay on a path all of your own
No matter where life will lead you it’ll bring you home

Get yourself a good woman
Keep her by your side
Get yourself a good woman
Keep her right there by your side
No matter what bring you down she’ll keep you satisfied
