When I was young and pushed around

And beaten up and beaten down

Who'd I run to mama tell me who

And as I grew to be a man
And all the world held such élan
I did what I thought I just had to do

DO SOL
It was you mama you, it was you all along
SOL RE
It was you I ran away from I was wrong

And if I could I'd change my life

I swear to god I'd cut it out with a knife
SOL RE SOL
And with a glue stick I'd reapply it in a song
Verse (G C G D G)
And laid back kerouac never no a heart attack
Drinking and thinking about the place that he ran back to
The moloch is an old man the moloch is a love-lack
Bending for a quick snack remembering his friend jack
And mama sometimes i remember you

Man loves woman
Mother loves child

Sometimes I call my lady mama

So I can feel at home for a while
Verse (G C G D G)
Looking around at all the mellencamp towns
The excuses and the nooses where the coffee grounds
I found places and traces of a storybook world
And i went out there for a ride
On the misty coast but the holy host
Is under mickey d's american flag and it's unfurled
Chorus (C G D / G C G D G) & Bridge (Bb F G / F G F C G)
