Mama Is Crying Songtext
von Teacha Dee

Mama she′s crying
Oh yeah
No more war
No more war aye

Yow a six months now mama nuh see her son
She never want the bwoy bruck out a Kingston
So she send him goh a country fi cool and sidung
Fi help him grandfather weh plant up a grung
She never know say him woulda reach to a gun
Because as far as she know a that run Kingston
And now the boy dead and she stand up
And a look pon the body inna the casket lie dung


Mama she's crying
All alone (All alone)
The one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she′s on her own (Oh yeah)
Mama she's crying
All alone (She's all alone)
Because the one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she′s on her own

If she coulda exchange
She woulda turn back the time
Go inna the box and put him inna the line
A young little youth him nuh reach twenty nine
She never know say him woulda die by crime
She think say the country did safer than the town
She never know the gun them reach all around
She have a sinking feeling
When time him go down
Six foot six under ground


She′s crying
All alone (She's all alone)
The one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she′s on her own
Mama she's crying (She′s crying)
All alone (She's all alone)
Because the one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she′s on her own (Hey)

Across the country a so crime a gwaan
The littlest a youth them nah keep calm
Every day every night them nuh stop beat corn
And if them nuh stop then the whole future gone
Who ago run the theatre and the ward
And who ago try beat Asafa record
If them nuh stop meck history
As murder mystery
Then mi say the whole future gone

Crying (She's crying)
All alone (All alone)
The one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she's on her own
Mama she′s crying (She′s crying)
All alone (She's all alone)
Because the one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she′s on her own

Mama she's crying (She′s crying)
All alone (Mama is all alone)
Because the one son she got
Him dead by gunshot
Now she's all alone

Aye she′s all alone
