Sister Sparrow & the Dirty Birds - Mama Knows

Mama said good things come free
Do what you can and be what you need
We never had much but we figured it out
When you've got nothing, there's nothing to bitch about

She would say oh, oh don't hit me with your stuff
Say you got money, you got something
Oh, oh just hit me with your love
You ain't got love, you ain't got nothing

Oh, oh don't hit me with your stuff
Say you got money, you got something
Oh, oh just hit me with your love
You ain't got love, you ain't got nothing

Mama knows
Mama knows

No shit your life is hard
It's an easy Sunday when you know who you are
Ain't no shortcut gonna bring you peace
But your mama knows just what you need

She would say oh, oh don't hit me with your stuff
Say you got money, you got something
Oh, oh just hit me with your love
You ain't got love, you ain't got nothing

Oh, oh don't hit me with your stuff
Say you got money, you got something
Oh, oh just hit me with your love
You ain't got love, you ain't got nothing

It's so sweet
If you don't know, you better go ask your mama

She would say oh, oh don't hit me with your stuff
Say you got money, you got something
Oh, oh just hit me with your love
You ain't got love, you ain't got nothing
