Dear mama, set me free
Hey mama, let me be
Mama, watch me run
Mama, I wanna have some fun (yeah)

Hey mama, let me down
I said mother, I want to go to town

If you want me to stick around I want to give em some slack (?maybe Paul got this wrong?)
I’m gonna hear [or "ease"?] the woman yet never come back

If you want (me) to stick around you’ve got to cut me some slack
I want to hear [or "ease"?] the woman yet never come back

Wooo, Wooo, Wooo, Woo

Mama, let me be
Oh now mother, set me free
C’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon watch me run
Oh, Mama, I just want to have some fun
Oh, set me free
Set me free
Set me free
