My Mama Said - ABBA

Tried to sneak out without saying

With my loudest record playing

Ooh, my mama said

«Look at this, you haven’t done your bed»

My mama said

«That's a thing that you should do instead»

Yeah, 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 you’ve been out again with Fred» (My mama said)

My mama said

«Don't 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 wouldn’t doubt him.»

Ooh, my mama said

«If you want to hurt me go ahead» (My mama said)

My mama said

«I suppose you’d 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

La-la-la, la-la-la, life

La-la-la, la-la-la, life
