 When mama said that it was okay
 Bb                         Dm   Gm
 Mama said that it was quite alright
                          Dm             Gm
 Our kind of people had a bed for the night
             F
 And it was ok
                         Eb
 Mama told us we were good kids
      Bb                   Dm           Gm
 And daddy told us never listen to the ones
                  Dm                Gm
 Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
                        F
 'Cause we were good kids

 [VERSE]
                          Gm
 Remember asking both my mom and dad
                F            Bb
 Why we never traveled to exotic lands
                     Gm
 We only ever really visit friends
            F               Bb
 Nothing to tell when the summer ends
                         Gm
 We never really went buying clothes
                    F                       Bb
 Folks were passing on this stuff in plenty loads
                    Gm
 New shoes once a year and then
               F               Bb
 Out to play ball so we could ruin them

 [VERSE] 
                        Gm
 Don't get me wrong I didn't have it bad
                  F             Bb
 I got enough loving from my mom and dad
                                   Gm
 But I don't think they really understood
                              F              Bb
 When I said that I wanted the deal in Hollywood

 I told them I'll be singing on TV
       Eb                            Bb
 The other kids were calling me a wannabe
                              Gm
 The older kids they started bugging me
                     F                Bb
 But now they all standing right in front of me

 [BRIDGE] 
 Gm             C
 I know which place I'm from
 Eb         Bb
 I know my home
 Gm             C
 When I'm in doubt and struggling
  Eb             Bb
 That's where I go
         Gm               C
 An old friend can give advice
           Eb                 Bb
 When new friends only know a half story
                Gm                  C
 That's why I'm always keep them tight
              Eb

                D
 ... I said I'm OK
 D
 You know what my mama said
 D
 You know what she told me
