Mama's alright
   She's got the taste you need
  Mama's alright
  She's got that smile
   But if you're in doubt, pick up the telephone
   Another reason for you to cry
  Another reason that mama lied to you

  That little black skirt she wears
  And with her thick pink lips she swears
  She may not be a lady but she's alright
   She's got the walk men love
　 She's got the voice that makes men melt
　 She may not be calling you tonight
　
　 But mama knows her wrong from right
　 And she will say "So what"
　 And Mama knows to be herself
　 So she can be with meˇand now
　
　 Mama's alright
　 She's got the taste you need
　 Mama's alright
　 She's got that smile
　 But if you're in doubt, pick up the telephone
　 Another reason for you to cry
　 Another reason that mama lied to you
　
　 I never felt the the real her
　 I never touched the real her
　 She may not be alive
　 But she's alright
　
　 But mama knows her wrong from right
　 And she will say "So what"
　 And Mama knows to be herself
　 So she can be with meˇand now
　
　 And you should know your wrong from right
　 So you can say "So what"
　 And you should know to be yourself
　 So you can be with meˇand now
　
　 Saw you last night
　 You had the taste I need
　 I saw you last night
　 But you didn't smile
　 If you're in doubt
　 Pick up the telephone
　 Now I'm alright
　 Cause I got the smile
　
　 Yeah Mama's alright
　 She's got the taste you need
　 Mama's alright
　 She's got that smile
　 Mama's alright
　 She's got the taste you need
　 Mama's alright
　 She's got that smile
