baby, there's a tear falling from your eye
you know when i'm around, you ain't supposed to cry
when you feel uptight, i'm here to make it right
let mama know

on a cloudy day when you're all alone
i'll only be as far as your telephone
my number's on the wall, don't be afraid to call
let mama know

let me be the one who turns you on to sunshine
if anybody ever brings you down
when you need some love and understanding
just count on me, i'll always be around

if this crazy world should ever get in your way
i'll turn the earth around and whip you up a brand new day
when it comes to you, there's nothing i can't do
let mama know

when you need some love and understanding
just count on me, i'll always be around

if this crazy world should ever get in your way
i'll turn the earth around and whip you up a brand new day
when it comes to you, there's nothing i can't do

let mama know, (Ooh-Ooh, let your Mama know)
let your mama know (Ooh-Ooh, let your Mama know)
mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm, (Ooh-Ooh, let your Mama know)
mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm, (Ooh-Ooh, let your Mama know)
