What Would My Mama Say

Roger Miller

Transposer:

[Intro] / [Verse 1] You don’t know what it’s about but you go out and try You’re young and your wings have just feathered and you’re dying to fly Dreaming is easy but living is hard I’m afraid I come from South Georgia and I feel like I walked all the way [Chorus] How much does it cost to Valdosta How much for just a part of the way Lord I’m tired and I’m hungry And I ain’t got much money What would my mama say [Bridge] / [Verse 2] Sometimes the notion comes one wants to just run away From all that he’s bothered by little things day after day Sometimes the rain is cold sometimes the sun shines down Life’s just a ball game that can’t be played all in one town [Chorus] How much does it cost to Valdosta How much for just a part of the way Lord I’m tired and I’m hungry And I ain’t got much money What would my mama say [Bridge] [Chorus Outro] How much does it cost to Valdosta How much for just a part of the way Lord I’m tired and I’m hungry And I ain’t got much money What would my mama say    What would my mama say

La chanson évoque les défis de la jeunesse et le désir d'évasion. Le protagoniste se sent fatigué et affamé, cherchant un chemin vers une meilleure vie tout en se remémorant les conseils maternels. Il exprime un sentiment d'incertitude face aux difficultés du quotidien et rêve d'un avenir plus radieux, tout en se questionnant sur le prix à payer pour atteindre ses aspirations. Ce récit reflète le combat intérieur entre le rêve et la réalité, avec un clin d'œil à l'importance des racines familiales.
