Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

I went walking the other day,
Everything was going fine,
I met a little boy named Billy Joe
And then I almost lost my mind

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
My eyes are wide open

But all that I can see is,
chapel bells are callin for everyone but-a me
but I don't worry cause

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
And then she said someone will look at me
like I'm looking at you one day,

then I might find
I don't want it any old way,
so I don't worry cause

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
Mama said, mama said
Hey! Don't you worry,

Mama said mama said
Hey! Don't you worry now.
Mama said mama said,
Hey! Hey!
