Lyrics
Mama, Papa, Look at me now,
I’m walkin away from a fight,
You must be standin so proud,
I’m walkin away from a fight.
That kid’s got a temper,
He’s gonna make the whole world pay,
If he can take punch from a full grown man,
Do you think some some little kid is gonna stand in his way?
Look at me he got my goat
Got me all riled up inside
A few years back I would of jumped in that fight
But now I bite my lip, and let it slide.
Instrumental...
Mama, Papa, Look at me now,
I’m walkin away from a fight,
You must be standin so proud,
I’m walkin away from a fight.
Look at me walkin’ not doin no talkin
go ahead and call me a Coward,
I’ll do my best to keep walkin’ from your sight,
ain’t no percentage in provin' who’s right.
Mama, Papa, Look at me now,
I’m walkin away from a fight,
You must be standin so proud,
I’m walkin away from a fight.
