I was just only four years when my father died
I was just only nine years when i droped out from school
Only ten years old the year i went to the city

Going there to be a slave to a man i've never known he would later be a foolish slave-driver
Mama was crying the day i left
Thinking maybe she was going to lose me there

Oh! As a little boy, i was hurrying to go
As a little boy i was, i knew nothing goes about slavery
I said Mama!

You know mama!
Ever since father died things have been hard for us.



Don't cry
Don't burder anymore

Mama never you be worried
Everything will be alright.
Don't cry

Don't burder, let me go
Never you be worried
Everything will be alright.



Father died of poison many years ago

Trying to get back our land that the evil men took
Now that we're suffering, mama can't you see that the only way left for me is to go to the city?
I knows that i am little

But soon mama!
All these tears will turn to laughters
Mama ooo!



Don't cry

Don't burder anymore
Mama never you be worried
Everything will be alright.

Don't cry
Don't burder, let me go
Never you be worried

Everything will be alright.



The only mama!
Mama ooo!
The only mama!

The only mama!
Mama ooo!
Mama ooo ooo!



Don't cry

Don't burder anymore
Mama never you be worried
Everything will be alright.

Don't cry
Don't burder, let me go
Never you be worried

Everything will be alright.



Mama ooo!
The only mama!
Mama ooo!

Mama ooo!
Mama ooo ooo!
Mama ooo!

Don't cry mama!
