So lay me down In that open field out on the edge of town And know my soul is where my mama always prayed that it would go If you're reading this, I'm already home If you're reading this My mama's sitting there Looks like I only got a one-way ticket over

Oh! Mama, Mama look there! Your children are playing in that street again Don't you know what happened down there? A youth of fourteen got shot down there The Kokane guns of Jamdown Town The killing clowns, the blood money men Are shooting those

Mama look at me now Mama look at me now (hey) When I was younger no one ever could tell me How to live my life They called my mama just to tell her Well, mama look at me now Catch me waving from the sky in a brand new G-5 They said that kid was on slide,

Can't nobody do your body like my body I'm sorry, your mama know what it is I'll write your name on the living room wall There she go looking like my future baby mama I'm about to give her all of her grandkids Singin' there she go looking like my future
