The Man Who Made My Mama Cry
(billy lawson/lee ann womack/dale dodson)
All youve ever been
Is a call every now and then
From some old pay phone
After youd hang up
Lord, shed take it rough
And want to be alone
I know you from the picture
Of you and her together
Taken at a fair in 68
Youve gotta lot of nerve to think
You can walk right in and take her place
To me youre just the man who made my mama cry
Someone who broke a lot of promises in his time
All I know about you is how to live without you
And I can see I have your eyes
But all youve ever been
Is the man who made my mama cry
When she took off my training wheels
Held a job and cooked the meals
Where were you?
Dont even start
She did her part
And yours too
Now youre back to play the part
That was missin in my heart
When I was growin up
Well, youre a little late
I dont have the time to waste on catchin up
To me youre just the man who made my mama cry
Someone who broke a lot of promises in his time
All I know about you is how to live without you
And I can see I have your eyes
But all youve ever been
Is the man who made my mama cry
All I know about you is how to live without you
And I can see I have your eyes
But all youve ever been
Is the man who made my mama cry

Hey You
Youre living in a small town
The people there are cold
Just living in a small town
Just doing as youre told
You move up to the jungle
You find that its a hell
When you slip, you fall, you stumble
They lock you in a cell
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, all your friends told you in your small town
Hey you, youve got it made
Just living in your home town
Sometimes its kinda cruel
Living in your home town
Where they treat you like a fool
You move up to the city
You find that its tough
And it doesnt seem very pretty
Now youre sleeping in the rough
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you
Youve got it made
Hey you
Youre heading for the big time
Hey you, youve got it made
Youre headed for a life of crime
Living in this jungle
Its like living in a hell
When you slip, you fall, you stumble
They lock you in a cell
You move out to the country
For something you have done
Youre living in the country
Why dont you go back to where you come from?
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Hey you, youve got it made
Forget all these backslappers
You dont stand a chance
Why dont you go home?
Go right back to where you come from
Dont get involved in this masquerade
This big city is going to eat you up
All the backslapping
Hey you, youve got it made

My Mama Said
Tried to sneak out without saying
With my loudest record playing
Ooh, my mama said, look at this, you havent done your bed
My mama said, thats a thing that you should do instead
Then I did what she had told me
Dying for my friend to hold me
Ooh, my mama said, try and get one thing into your head
My mama said, pa and me, we give you room and bed
How I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
In the morning she said listen
Ooh, I felt like in a prison
Yeah, my mama said, i know youve been out again with fred
(my mama said)
My mama said, dont you lie, your cheeks are blushing red
(my mama said)
Oh I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
I said I can live without him
How I wish you wouldnt doubt him
Ooh, my mama said, if you want to hurt me go ahead
(my mama said)
My mama said, i suppose youd rather see me dead
(my mama said)
Oh I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life

You Gotta Stop
(words & music by giant - baum - kaye)
Baby youve been lying to me now Im onto you
Its the same old song but it doesnt ring true
Thats right youre wrong again
Time to change and put you on your own again
Youve had your way too long
Time for me to be moving on
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Youve been steppin out wild and fancy free
Now youve had your fun and youre running back to me
It just cant be if theres no harmony
Then stop!
Thats all lets break it up
Youve had me fooled now Im wakin up
I see right through your lies
You made me open my eyes
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Its too late now Ive made up my mind
Being here with you is just a waste of time
Nothing to say so Ill be on my way
Stop!
You gotta stop, youre wrong again
Stop ... that song again
Its too late now Ive made up my mind
Being here with you is just a waste of time
It just cant be if theres no harmony
Then stop! stop! youre wrong again
Stop that song again
Stop! youre wrong again
You gotta stop that song again
Stop!

Tell Mama
(carter/terrel/daniel)
You thought you had found a good girl
One to love you and give you the world
Now youve found that youve been misused
Talk to me Ill do what you choose
I want you to tell mama all about it
Tell mama what you need
Tell mama what you want
And Ill make everything all right
That girl you had didnt have much sense
She wasnt worth all the time that you spent
She had another man throw you out doors
Now the same man is wearing your clothes
I want you to tell mama all about it
Tell mama what you need
Tell mama what you want
And Ill make everything all right
She would embarass you anywhere
She let everybody know she didnt care
Give me a chance Im begging you
I just wanna take care of you
Come on and tell mama all about it
Tell mama what you need
Tell mama what you want
Tell mama just what you want right now
Come on and tell mama all about it
Tell mama what you need
Tell mama what you want
Tell mama just what you want right now

Thats The Way
I dont know how Im gonna tell you
I cant play with you no more,
I dont know how Im gonna do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.
I cant believe what people saying
Youre gonna let your hair hang down,
Im satisfied to sit here working all day long,
Youre in the darker side of town.
And when Im out I see you walking,
Why dont your eyes see me,
Could it be youve found another game to play,
What did mama say to me.
*thats the way,
Oh, thats the way it ought to be,
Yeah, yeah, mama say
Thats the way it ought to stay.
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And werent those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.
I dont know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But nows the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
Thats the way
Thats the way it oughtta be
Oh dont you know now
Mama said.. thats the way its gonna stay, yeah.

Evil Eye
Youve got an evil eye
And I wanna say mama
I cant face it for another day
You dont even try
And I wanna say baby
I cant take it when youre.......
*makin me hurry, makin me wait
Takin me early, leavin me late
Shakin my feelin, makin me cry
Dont it sound funny
But Im saying bye-bye
Youve got an evil eye
And I wanna say mama
You cant see it any other way
All you do is lie
And I wanna say baby
You know I cant stand it when youre.......

I dont need what youre givin me honey
You know I dont want

I dont care if youre missin my money
You know I dont care if youre stealin me blind
Ill leave you behind
Oh well, leavin you baby
So long bye-bye
Oh well, when youre drivin me crazy
So long bye-bye
Oh well, dont believe its funny
So long bye-bye

Mama Mama
I can feel the magic
Suddenly its all around
I can see it clearly
I can even hear the sound
Its all so new to me
Im not the same
If this is love
Then youre to blame
Mama mama when you look at me
I see love in your eyes
Mama mama softly sweet tender love in your eyes
You are all I live for
Maybe thats enough to say
And youre the one I wrote this song for
Everywhere and everyway
Its all so new to me
Im not the same
Its words I feel
But cant explain
Mama mama when you look at me
I see love in your eyes
Mama mama softly sweet tender love in your eyes
Mama mama, mama mama
I really love you
I really need you
Mama mama, mama mama
I really need you mama
I really love you mama

Dont You
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Dont you
You ever let me know how
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that youve burned out
Dont you
You want to let it go
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Dont you
You walk upon my heels now
You walk on
And I should call your soul out but I feel Ive gained control now
Dont you
You tell me what to do as you
You twist and turn your thoughts around
Oh, this road its getting long
Stones, dont you
Theyre getting harder and youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping further than youve been before
But I dont need to know how
And I dont need to blow out your candle
Its only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to dose your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath youre going
Your deeper breath youre going
Under this time
Its under this time
You, youve got to go now
Wont you, youve got to go not
And dont you, you know it
Dont you, you know it
Youve got to go now
Dont you, youve gotta go now

Big Choice
Big lies
Surprise
Youve thought of everything
It builds your character you know
No way
Ok
So whats the price you pay?
Too late to realize youre broke
Do you think that everything worked out?
Its good to see youve finally made it
Cant you see youre lying to yourself?
But this was all your choice
Do you think it makes a difference now?
But this was all your choice
Its good to see it hasnt changed you
Youve tried
Denied
Cant win at everything
Its building character you know
Dont wait
Too late
Youve got a choice to make
Its time to do what youve been told
Arent you glad that everything worked out?
Its good to see youve finally made it
Cant you see youre lying to yourself?

What A Difference Youve Made
What a difference youve made in my life.
What a difference youve made in my life.
Youre my sunshine day and night.
Oh, what a difference youve made
In my life.
What a change you have made in my heart.
What a change you have made in my heart.
You replaced all the broken parts.
Oh, what a change you have made
In my heart.
Love to me was just a word in a song
That had been way overused.
But you gave love a meaning,
So I joined in the singing,
Thats why I wanna spread the news.
What a difference youve made in my life.
What a difference youve made in my life.
Youre my sunshine day and night.
Oh, what a difference youve made,

Born To Run
Youre back to win
To start again
Searching for the power
That youve had before
The tables turned
Mistakes youve made
Stop telling lies - no angeleyes
Just look straight ahead
Dont be afraid to roll the dice
Open up your eyes
So hit the road and memorize
Youre not for sale
Youre born to run
So take it from the start
You know youre born to run
Dont lose your heart
Now youre calling the shots
So youd better watch out
Dont you understand you cant deny
What you have done before
But dont you know
Your time will come
Forget the past - just head out
Head out for your aims
And in the end youll see the light
Tearing up the night
So let it shine and realize
Youre not for sale
Youre born to run
So take it from the start
You know youre born to run
Dont waste your time and realize that youre
Youre born to run
Tomorrows here today
cause youre the number one
Youre leading the way
So just believe me
Youd better watch out
Your time will come
Mark my words
Think about it
I wanna tell ya
Youre born to run
So take it from the start
You know youre born to run
Dont waste your time and realize that youre
Youre born to run
Tomorrows here today
cause youre the number one
Fight the fight - light the light - realize youre
Born to run

Mama Said
Mama said see it through
Dont let the night put the bite on you
Take your time make your plan
Mama said son be your own best man
Mama said play it straight do what you like only do it up right
Take your time dont run wild
Mama said son youre my one man child
Mama didnt have that know-it-all-way
She lived by the book and she prayed every day
Never was a time when a rhythm or rhyme
Or the words of a song ever slipped her mind
Mama said go out there play at the game and you better play it fair
Make sure your song get sung
Mama said honey be your own big gun
Mama didnt care when I never came home
She learned how to cope with the end of the phone
Dad went away to his place in the sky
Mum said son he was a real good guy
Mama said see it through
Dont let the night put the bite on you
Take your time dont run wild
Mama said son youre my one man child
Mama didnt have that know-it-all-way
She lived by the book and she prayed every day
Never was a time when a rhythm or rhyme
Or the words of a song ever slipped her mind

Dont let the night put the bite on you
Take your time make your plan

Time Machine
Oh what are you gonna do
When theres a part of you
That needs to run with the wind
And the fire of burning yesterdays
Can only light the way
To lead you from
The garden of the dark
Stay out of shadows
Now look like the change is on
Tomorrows never gone
Today just never comes
Go on and jump,yeah
Into the hurricane
You will forger the pain
Its only there
To exorcise your mind
Looking at the world
When youve open up your eyes
Youve got to see the promises theyve made
Theyre bloody lies and broken dreams
Your silence screams
Chorus:
Youre living in a time machine
And you can choose just who you are
Someone that youve never seen
Somewhere youve never been
Youre living in a time machine
Oh what are you gonna do
When every part of you
Just needs to catch the wind
And the fire of burning yesterdays
Can only light the way
To lead you from
The garden of the dark
Looking for the world
When youve opened up your eyes
Youll see youve got invisible chains
Theyre only lies
Not what it seems
I hear your silent screams
Chorus:
Youre living in a time machine
Nobody cares just where you go
Taken where youve never been
? ? ? somewhere you dont know
Youre living in a time machine
Why do you stay who you are
Be what youve never been
Someone youve never seen
Youre living in a time machine
Yeah

Dont Look Back
Time to walk away
Youve run out of things to say
Everything ends up the same old story
You dont know where love went
But nothings making sense
You both know you cant fake it anymore
Dont look back hell see you cryin
Dont look back on love thats dyin
Make believe your heart is made of stone
Dont look back into his eyes
Youve already said goodbye
Its over now; youve got to let him go
Hes the one you love
But sometimes love is not enough
Its too complicated to explain
No you never will forget
But youll get over it
Someday just sweet memories will remain
So dont look back; dont break your will
Dont look back at him until
Youre far enough to let your feelings show
Dont look back into those eyes
Youve gone back so many times
Its over now youve got to let him go
Theres a time for everything including leavin
Theres a time the heart admits defeat
And starts its grieving

Said you needed to take some time to work out your life, yeah

But I didnt know you were gonna walk away from me, no

Youre gonna end up losing more than you find
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When youre down and so far away from home

The London Boys
Cow bell strikes another night
Your eyes are heavy and your limbs all ache
Youve bought some coffee, butter and bread
You cant make a thing cause the meters dead
You moved away
Hold your folks youre gonna stay away
Bright lights, soho, wardour street
You hope you make friends with the guys that you meet
Somebody shows you round
Now youve met the london boys
Things seem good again, someone cares about you
Oh, the first time that you tried a pill
You feel a little queasy, decidedly ill
Youre gonna be sick, but you mustnt lose faith
To let yourself down would be a big disgrace
With the london boys, with the london boys
Youre only seventeen, but you think youve grown
In the month youve been away from your parents home
You take the pills too much
You dont give a damn about that jobs youve got
So long as youre with the london boys
A london boy, oh a london boy
Your flashy clothes are your pride and joy
A london boy, a london boy
You think youve had a lot of fun
But you aint got nothing, youre on the run
Its too late now, cause youre out there boy
Youve got it made with the rest of the toys
Now you wish youd never left your home
Youve got what you wanted but youre on your own
With the london boys
Now youve met the london boys
Now youve met the london boys
Now youve met the london boys
