Текст песни Holy Water (My Mama Said)

That boy on the corner, he be sellin?fluff
Canо– tell him nothin,о–њause his life is tough
Gotta make a livin,?he be out all night
But the old folks say Betty raised that boy up right

My Mama said
Boy, you need some Holy Water
My Mama said
Sprinkle that boy with Holy Water
My Mama said
Come on, come on, drink some Holy Water
My Mama said
Come on, come on, child, take the Lord with you

Babies makin?babies, doin?deals in the street
Boyо–¬ got a deadline with a windin?sheet
His Baby-Mother, outta school, outta dreams
Caught up in soaps while little Malcolm screams

My Mama said
Boy, you need some Holy Water
My Mama said
Sprinkle that boy with Holy Water
My Mama said
Come on, come on, drink some Holy Water
My Mama said
Come on, come on, child, take the Lord with you

Sprinkle that boy with Holy Water, child
Everyone knows you canо– fight fire with fire!
Ashes to ashes, from cradle to grave
Drink Holy Water, that boy can sure be saved!


My Mama said
Boy, you need some Holy Water
My Mama said
Sprinkle that boy with Holy Water
My Mama said
Come on, come on, drink some Holy Water
My Mama said
Come on, come on, child, take the Lord with you
