Dave Sheriff Mama Said song lyrics

mama said – show respect for one another

mama said – take a pride in what you do

never put off ‘till tomorrow what you can do today

and always have a shine on your shoes

i remember all these things my mama told me

was the picture of the life that she had led

all these little pearls of wisdom

she had gathered in her life

and had passed to me with every word she said

mama said – show respect for one another

mama said – take a pride in what you do

never put off ‘till tomorrow what you can do today

and always have a shine on your shoes

...music...

now i've got children of my own i try to tell them

all these little things my mama said to me

and the recipe of life between a husband and a wife

makes a life of love forever happily

mama said – show respect for one another

mama said – take a pride in what you do

never put off ‘till tomorrow what you can do today

and always have a shine on your shoes

always live this day as if it is your last

‘cos heaven knows that one day you'll be right

settle your indifferences before you go to bed

never go to sleep before you say goodnight

mama said – show respect for one another

mama said – take a pride in what you do

never put off ‘till tomorrow what you can do today

and always have a shine on your shoes

...music...
