Tell Me

You thought you had found yourself a good girl
One who would love you and give you the world
Then you find, babe, that you’ve been misused
Come to me, honey, I’ll do what you choose
She’d embarrass you anywhere
She’d make her friends think that she didn’t care
Give me the chance and I’d been begging
And I just want to take care of you and I want you to
Tell Mama, all about it, tell Mama, what you need
Tell Mama, what you want and I’ll make everything alright
The girl you had didn’t have no sense
She wasn’t worth all the time that you spent
Had another man throw you out the door
Now that same man is wearing your clothes
I want you to
Tell your Mama, what you want, tell your Mama, what you need
Tell your Mama, what you got to have
