You say you're livin' on the edge and I think you're hangin' from a ledge Too scared to hold the hand that wants to help you up Are you still a bullet in your daddy's gun Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son She's at home and she's been praying

Give it up baby, baby mama can't buy you love Before it's too late Mama don't want you, daddy don't want you Mama don't want you, daddy don't need you Baby, so they give you anything Darling, all the joy money can bring Baby, do they bring you happiness

Mama don't go Daddy come home I just got to tell you Mother, you had me But I never had you I wanted you But you didn't want me
