Mama - Jennifer Warnes Written by:Steve Ferguson Mama leave your front door open tonight Don't know when I'll be back or if I'll be alright But I do figure on being pretty late So mama leave your front door open tonight I've seen a lot of things that made me blink Stand in here beside you are the kitchen sink Oh the mountains and the desert stand mighty proud and tall 'Cause they just don't compare this feeling at all I used to stand straight I felt pretty strong I knew who I was 'til he came along And he taught me some things I never knew Now I don't know what to do What to do Oh mama he makes me feel like a bed of hot coals He hit me so hard he left me full of holes So just give a smile and everything will be right Mama leave the front door open tonight
