Lyrics - Mama Says by Pilgrim Billy

Mama they won't take me seriously
They show me the door but they hold back the key
I ask myself what is wrong with me
Do they see something
I don't see
I know you told me, not to take from strangers
But
I am preoccupied with the dangersand respect among thieves
There's a piracy on the high seas
And
I am held for trason herewith no reasons clear, that
I know
The old house by the late
A split was so apparent
An imminent break
How could
I've known
I was just a kid
I was only doin'
Just what
I was told
And
I know you told me, not to take from strangers
But
I am preoccupied with the dangersand respect among thieves
There's a piracy on the high seas
And
I am held for treason here
With no reasons clear, that
I know
What do
I know?
The seeds don't grow
Through my broken home
What do
I know?
I don't want to grow old alone
What do
I know?
Mama they won't take me seriously
They show me the doorbut they hold back the key
