Here I am in my four corner cage
I need the love that my momma gave
Back then at that tender age
When my daddy used to call me babe
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Sometimes I get up and I feel fine
Other times, I can't relax my mind
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Now I've found somethin' close to
What I thought only mother's love could do
She read my mind and then I knew
She was the one I could do it, too
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Sometimes I get up and I feel fine
Other times, I can't relax my mind
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Here I am in my four corner cage
I need the love that my momma gave
Back then at that tender age
When my daddy used to call me babe
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Didn't have to run for love
Sometimes I get up and I feel fine
Other times, I can't relax my mind
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
Straight shot, keep cryin' for my momma
Pure love, straight shot
