Candi Staton - Mama/ I Thought You'd Like To Know
THOUGHT YOU'LD LIKE TO KNOW
ALL THOSE NIGHTS YOU PACED THE FLOOR
PRAYING THAT I WOULD MAKE IT HOME ALRIGHT,
BELIEVING IN GOD THAT HE WOULD SOMEDAY SAVE MY SOUL
WELL HE DID, JUST THOUGHT YOU'LD LIKE TOO KNOW.
THEN I THOUGHT YOU'LD LIKE TO KNOW
ALL THOSE PRAYERS YOU PRAYED FOR ME,
NEVER A-ONE FELL TO THE GROUND, I KNOW
SOMETIMES IT LOOK LIKE I WAS A MILLION MILES FROM GRACE
BUT HE ANSWERED YOUR PRAYERS, JUST THOUGHT YOU'D LIKE TOO KNOW.
CHORUS
OH MOMMA I WANT YOU TO KNOW I LOVE YOU,
PLEASE FORGIVE MY FOR ALL THE TIMES I BROKE YOUR HEART
EVERY TEAR YOU CRIED FOR ME, DREW ME CLOSER TOO BEING FREE, AND I WANT TOO THANK YOU, JUST THOUGHT YOU'LD LIKE TOO KNOW.
THEN I THOUGHT YOU'LD LIKE TOO KNOW
THAT I WISH I COULD LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN,
IF I COULD, I WOULD SURELY MAKE AMENDS, AND IF I COULD HELP MY BROTHER, A NEW LIFE TO DISCOVER, OH I WOULD,
JUST THOUGHT YOU'LD LIKE TOO KNOW.
GO BACK TO CHORUS
ALL THOSE NIGHTS YOU PACED THE FLOOR
PRAYING THAT I WOULD MAKE IT HOME ALRIGHT,
BELIEVING IN GOD THAT HE WOULD SOMEDAY SAVE MY SOUL

ALL THOSE PRAYERS YOU PRAYED FOR ME,
NEVER A-ONE FELL TO THE GROUND, I KNOW
