When you left me you thought I'll die
Sit at home alone and cry
And it hurts me because that you were right
I tell myself that I'll begin to try and forgive you
But then I go and cry myself to sleep at nightBut somethin' that my mama said
Keeps goin' around inside my head
And if I only knew that it was true
The time and tears will wash away
This hurt I'm still in night and day
Then I know that I'll get over you
Mama said one thing for certain
It'll feel good when it quits hurtin'
And you know that Mama's always right
And if this hurt will go away
Then I'll feel good again someday
And I won't ever want you by my sideAnd now you've spread it all around
Just how you tore my playhouse down
And that's because you broke my heart in two
You think that love is fun and game
And you don't even feel the shame
But someday it may all come home to youAnd now you think you're flyin' high
And you don't care how much I cry
But what goes up will come back down someday
And if my mama's words are true
But then I won't be lovin' you
And I'll be glad I heard my mama say
Mama said one thing's for certain
It'll feel good when it quits hurtin'
And you know that Mama's always right
And if this hurt will go away
Then I'll feel good again someday
And I won't ever want you in my side
