When I was younger, no one ever could tell me how to live
My life
I started troubled, that�s what young kids do
Yeah, I was young alright
My teacher said I�d be a failure
They call my mama just to tell her
Oh! Your son is troubled, there�s no doubt
He�s never gonna leave this town
Well, mama, look at me now
Catch me wavin� from the sky in a brand new G5
Mama, look at me now (now, now, now, now)
They said that kid was on slide, but he�s doing alright
Mama, look at me now (hey!)
Mama, look at me now (hey!)
C�mon, look at me now (hey!)
Mama, look at me now (hey!)
Mama, look at me now
When I was younger no one ever could tell me how to live
My life
I told my mama not to worry
Cuz she worry �bout my world outside
They gave me pills to make me better
They call my mama just to tell her
Oh! Your son is trouble, good for nothing
He ain�t ever gonna leave this town
Well, mama, look at me now
Catch me wavin� from the sky in a brand new g-5
Mama look at me now (now, now, now, now)
They said that kid was on slide, but he�s doing alright
Mama look at me now (hey!)
Mama look at me now (hey!)
C�mon look at me now (hey!)
Mama look at me now (hey!)
Mama look at me now
Mama look at me now
Mama look at me now
