Tell me mama is your life a better change?
And tell me mama
Would you live your life the same or come back
And rearrange?

Tell me mama how is freedom?
Oh I?m thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I?m trying now

Oh I?m thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
Tell me mama
Are the colors deeper shades?

And tell me mama are there great big brass parades?
Does the sun shine night and day?
Tell me mama no more sleeping
Tell me mama no more weeping

Oh I?m thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I?m trying now
Oh I?m thinking of you

And all the things that you wanted me to be
Tell me mama is it just the way they say?
And tell me mama are you missing me the way
That I?m missing you today?

Tell me mama can you hear me?
Oh I?m thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I?m trying now
Oh I?m thinking of you
