  • 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
