Those early days who said Patience never pays? It´s a man´s world we´re living in But that don´t mean you have to start giving in
When he says, woman, there´s a place for you That don´t mean that´s what you have to do There´s a gift somebody gave to you It´s called talking and saying out loud
My mama never knew but I do, I do My mama never knew Oh she never knew But I do, yes I do Oh my mama she never knew Yes I do
It was late, late in life When my mama started to fight She said man, boy what the hell are you Gonna break up this room with a word or two
If it seems I ain´t good enough for you
Then you know just what you have to do Pack your bags honey, take your life with you Go on walk out that door I won´t say it no more
My mama never knew but I do, I do My mama never knew Oh she never knew But I do, yes I do Oh my mama she never knew She never knew Yes I do
Tied to the cross Sometimes I feel like an anchor in your life I´m just a woman But more than a woman I have in my life She said, You bring me down You turn me around
If there´s a justice I want justice in this life
My mama never knew but I do, I do My mama never knew but I do Yes I do
Those early days who said Patience never pays? It´s a man´s world we´re living in But that don´t mean you have to start giving in
When he says, woman, there´s a place for you That don´t mean that´s what you have to do There´s a gift somebody gave to you It´s called talking and saying out loud
My mama never knew but I do, I do
My mama never knew Oh she never knew But I do, yes I do Oh my mama she never knew Yes I do
