Does Your Mama Know About Me - Diana Ross, The Supremes

Does your mama know about me?

Does she know just what I am?

Will she turn her back on me

Or accept me as I am?

And what about your dad?

Did you think of what he’ll say?

Will he be understanding

Or does he think the usual way?

Maybe I shouldn’t worry

But I’ve been through this before

And I’d like to get things straight

Before I’m knocking on your door

Does your mama know about me?

Does she know just what I am?

If she says forget about me

Do you think you’ll understand?

And what about your friends?

Do you care what people say?

Will you accept the burdens

I know will surely come your way?

Maybe I shouldn’t worry

But I’ve been through this before

And I’d like to get things straight

Before I’m knocking on your door

Does your mama know about me?

Does she know just what I am?

Will she turn her back on me

Or accept me as I am?

Oh, we’ve got to stand tall

Tumble or crawl

We’ve got to be strong

For love that’s so right

Can’t be wrong

And everyday I see it grow

I don’t want to let it go

That’s why I gotta know

Does your mama know about me?

Does she know just what I am?

Does your mama know about me?

Does she know just what I am?

Does your mama know about me?

Does she know just what I am?
