Mama's got a problem
She don't know what to say
Her little baby boy
Has just left home today
She's got to be the loser in the end
S[D]he's got to be the loser in the end
M[A]isuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
S[D]he's ma on whom you can always depend [D7]ooh[A]
S[A]he washed and fed and clothed and cared
For nearly twenty years
And all she gets is Goodbye Ma
And the night times for her tears
She's got to be the loser in the end
S[D]he's got to be the loser in the end
M[A]isuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
S[D]he's ma on whom you can always depend [D7]ooh[A][A][G]
S[D]o listen mothers [G]ev'rywhere
T[D]o just one mothers so[G]n
Y[D]ou'll get forgotten [G]on the way
I[C]f you don't let them h[A]ave their fun
F[D]orget regrets and j[G]ust remember
I[C]t's not so long since y[D]ou were young
Y[A]ou're bound to be the loser in the end
Y[D]ou're bound to be the loser in the end
T[A]hey'll chose their new shoes
That's not far to bend
