From a child to a man...
they taught me...
Mama said
take time son cause you,
got to walk before you can run.
Daddy said
know you friends cause,
if you skid you might
end up in a problem
Dont be a fool
move well cool
And apply
a skillful trod
Mama, Papa they told me.
Can’t hear,
you’ve got to feel,
personally, I know this is real
and time
it is the master,
these are the words from my mother and my father.
Dont be a fool,
move well cool
and apply
a skillful trod
Mama, Papa they told me.
Respect your parents.
Mama, Papa,
in all they teachings.
Knowledge without wisdom
is like water in the sand
in the moment of crisis
the wise build bridges
and the foolish build dams.
By crawling,
a child learns to stand,
if you close your eyes to the facts
(Oh) you will learn through accidents yes
Don’t be a fool,
Don’t break the rules
and apply
a mindful trod
Mama, Papa they told me.
Don’t be a fool,
And don’t break the rules
and apply
a mindful trod
Mama, Papa they told me.

Dont be a fool,
And move well cool
