Mama lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Mama I don't ever want to see you cry

If then they knew him

They'd have passed right by

Oh, Joseph's a man of many women, feel no way

Oh, always remember you are the first of them

So oh Mama

If they could see where we are coming from

The other day

Then they would know just where they belong

If they could see where you're coming from

Just the other day

They would know just where they belong

Let stumbling blocks fall out of your way

Lord know, Lord knows your reward shall be great

They were broken off through their lack of faith

But because of your faith you are still in place

Woe Mama, if they could see where you're coming from

Just the other day

Then they would know just where you are coming from

If they could see where you are coming from

Just the other day

Then they would know just where they belong

Ah my children

Oh Mama

Fret not for me

I know Jah will be there

Eternally

If they could see where we are coming from

Just the other day

Then they would know just where they belong

If they could see where we are coming from

Then they would know just where they belong

Mama I don't ever want to see you cry

Ain't no lie

If then they knew him

They would have passed right by

So many called but you were chosen

And so you will remain outspoken

Oh Mama

If they could see where we are coming from

Just the other day

Then they would know just where they belong

Mama I don't ever want to see you cry

Ain't no lie

If then they knew him

They would have passed right by

So many called but you were chosen

And so you will remain outspoken

Oh Mama

If they could see where we are coming from

Just the other day

Then they would know just where they belong

If they could see where we are coming from

Just the other day

Then they would know just where they belong

Then they would know

Yes they would know
