Will she turn her back on me) Or accept me as a man? And what about your Dad? Did you think of what he'll say? Will he be understanding Or does he think the usual way? Maybe I shouldn't worry But I've been through this before And I'd like to get things straight Before I'm knocking on your door (Does your mama know about me? Does she know just what I am? If she says forget about me) Do you think you'd understand? And what about your friends? Do you care what people say? Will you accept the burdons I know will surely come your way? Maybe I shouldn't worry But I've been through this before And I'd like to get things straight Before I'm knocking on your door (Does your mama know about me? Does she know just what I am? Will she turn her back on me?) Or accept me as a man? We've got to stand tall Can't stumble or crawl We've got to be strong For love that's so right Can't be wrong And every day I see it grow And I don't want to let it go I guess that's why I gotta know (Does your mama know about me? Does your mama know about me? Does your mama know about me? Does your mama know about me? Does your mama know about me?) |
