[Janis Ian - And I Did Ma letra de lyrics]
My mother, she told me to stay away from boys
And I did, Ma, and I did, Ma
"You can enjoy yourself home with your toys"
And I did, Ma, and I did
Ah, but I was lonely, never had a boyfriend
I was lonely, oh so lonely
And then I found out toys
Were different from men
There's a difference, yes there is, Ma!
I married young to a man of the plains
I was happy, oh so happy
But as the time passed he
Brought me only pain
I remembered what dear mother had said
(Oh yeah)
"Take out our old deck of fine playing cards
Choose the best of the lady
Take in your hand the Queen of the Heart
And listen to what she will say"
Laughter wait, wait, wait!
I left my husband and made it back home
I was happy, oh so happy
I have all my toys so I don't feel alone
I'm a good kid, yes I am, Ma!
And every night when I say my prayers
I remember what was said by the cards
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
I followed her warning and I
Thank her for being
My mother, the queen of my heart
And I did, Ma, and I did, Ma
"You can enjoy yourself home with your toys"
And I did, Ma, and I did
Ah, but I was lonely, never had a boyfriend
I was lonely, oh so lonely
And then I found out toys
Were different from men
There's a difference, yes there is, Ma!
I married young to a man of the plains
I was happy, oh so happy
But as the time passed he
Brought me only pain
I remembered what dear mother had said
(Oh yeah)
"Take out our old deck of fine playing cards
Choose the best of the lady
Take in your hand the Queen of the Heart
And listen to what she will say"
Laughter wait, wait, wait!
I left my husband and made it back home
I was happy, oh so happy
I have all my toys so I don't feel alone
I'm a good kid, yes I am, Ma!
And every night when I say my prayers
I remember what was said by the cards
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
I followed her warning and I
Thank her for being
My mother, the queen of my heart
