Hey Mama
You've got that something I want you to know
It's about time that I told you so
I think you'll see when you listen to me
Every mother needs it to a great degree
Patience
Mom, mom, mommy, mama
Mom, mom, mommy, mama
Mom, mom, mommy, mama
Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mama
You've got patience, patience
You're so cool and so in touch
Patience, patience
I'm just so glad you've got so much
Every mother understands that children need a helping hand
And we are doing all we can grow
And sometimes we may fail to hear our mother's wisdom in our ear
But, her patience perseveres to show us what we need to know
Mom, mom, mommy, mama
Mom, mom, mommy, mama
Mom, mom, mommy, mama
Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mama
You've got patience, patience
You're so cool and so in touch
Patience, patience
I'm just so glad you hardly ever get mad
And so mama, I'll tell ya
It really does show
You've got that wonderful stuff
More than enough
Sometimes it's rough, I know
Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mama
You've got
Patience
