00:13I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
00:19I can't play with you no more
00:24I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me
00:29My friend, a boy in that store
00:41I can't believe what people say
00:47Don't let your hair hang down
00:53I'm satisfied to sit here working all that long
00:59You're in the darkest side of town
01:15And when I'm out, I see you walking
01:22Why don't your eyes see me
01:27Could it be you found another game to play
01:33What did mama say to me
01:39That's the way
01:42Oh, that's the way it ought to be
01:44Oh, don't you know now
01:50Mama said
01:52Oh, mama said
01:54That's the way it ought to be
01:57Oh
02:17And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
02:23And weren't those tears that filled your eyes
02:29And all the fish were laying dirty one night
02:35Had they got you in the town
02:51And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
02:56But all the living is going to die
03:02So I said to you
03:05Nothing really matters
03:08And all you do is stand and cry
03:25I don't know what to say about it
03:30But all your ears have turned away
03:36Now's the time to look in the cooking
03:39And what to see
03:41Set out the way it ought to stay
03:48That's the way
03:50Oh, that's the way it ought to be
03:53Oh, that's the way it ought to be
04:25Oh, that's the way it ought to be
04:29Oh, that's the way it ought to be
04:53Oh, that's the way it ought to be
05:23Oh, that's the way it ought to be
05:28Oh, that's the way it ought to be
