Oh mama,
Yes I've got you on the phone line,
tellin you that I'm comin through the grapevine,
oh, they're comin on her ma.
She said you know it's wrong, and all you do is song. Yes, I wanted something that can do no wrong. Oh, you're gonna see yourself locked away in the penitentiary for love you've got to pay.
You got me trippin for too long fore I go aways (x4).
Tell me that justice is wrong. Oh, what am I doing? Oh, it's so wrong. Yes you known it's time to go and free their minds. Oh, they're tellin me I'm gonna do some time. Oh, yes my mama tell me so. Oh one day I'd hate to see the sun through all the gold. Oh, see it's time to free those minds. Oh, yes those minds, free those minds.
You got me trippin for too long fore I go aways (x4).
She says you know, yes, I love you so. Oh, you're my son and I hate to see you go. Oh, that see you done to do these crimes. Oh, you must be better yes to go and do the time. Oh, well I don't care now, bring me soul. Oh it's not you when you long to road. Oh, you can take this time in life. Oh, I will not make it for all life.
You got me trippin for too long fore I go aways (x4).
