Cover art for Mama Said lyrics by Shirelles, The

Everything was going fine I met a little boy named Billy Joe And then I almost lost my mind

.... innocent & naive, fell in love, got her heart broken.

My eyes are wide open But all that I can see is Chapel bells are callin' for everyone but-a me But I don't worry 'cause

..... couldnt find love, everyone else seems to be finding love except her.

And then she said someone will look at me Like I'm looking at you one day Then I might find I don't want it any old way So I don't worry, 'cause

..... perhaps they aren't finding real love, just getting married. shes waiting out, she wants real love, not 'any old way.' she knows she will find love, that she must find it.
