Empty pockets never stopped me from singing a blue streak, no!
And I don't think the devil's ever gonna give me back
I don't think so!
'Cause stayin' 'round here takes patience
It's like a full time occupation
I've become a diplomaniac
Yes I did, baby!
Hey mean old gal, you know the cross-town bus just rolled
Yeah I'm the same old number but we still got time to go
Oh I say mama living ain't a luxury, no
Oh I say mama and a lil' ain't enough for me
No it ain't, no it ain't baby!
Yeah I'm believing that you needin' yo relaxation, whoa!
but honey tell me can you tell that story twice?
I don't think so mama!
'Cause there's a function at the junction,
I think ya better get it all ready girl
See I was born without a silver spoon but I'm gonna make a stir
Yes I am!
Was vaccinated with a phonograph needle one summer break
And then I kissed her on her daddy's boat and shot accross the lake
And was singin' it
Oh I say mama living ain't a luxury
Oh I say mama and a lil' ain't enough for me
No it ain't baby, no it ain't!
Mmmm, said a little ain't enough, baby!
Baby, PLEASE!!
Little ain't enough, aw yeah, Wow!
Was vaccinated with a phonograph needle one summer break
Same summer that I kissed her on her daddy's boat
and shot across the lake
Yeah!
Oh I say mama living ain't a luxury
Oh I say mama and a lil' ain't enough for me
Oh I say mama living ain't a luxury
Oh I say mama and a lil' ain't enough for me
