I'm gonna hideIf she don't leave me aloneI'm gonna run away (don't)'Cause you can never go home anymore
ListenDoes this sound familiar?You wake up every morningGo to school every daySpend your nights on the cornerJust passing time awayYour life is so lonelyLike a child without a toyThen a miracle, a boyAnd that's called "glad"
Now my mom is a good momAnd she loves me with all her heartBut she said I was too young to be in loveAnd the boy and I would have to partAnd no matter how I ranted and ravedI screamed, I pleaded, I criedShe told me, it was not really loveBut only my girlish prideAnd that's called "bad"(Never go home anymore)
Now if that's happened to you, don't let thisI packed my clothes and left home that nightThough she begged me to stayI was sure I was rightAnd you know something funny?I forgot that boy right awayInstead I remember being tucked in bedAnd hearing my mama say(Hush, little baby, don't you cry)(Mama won't go away)
Mama!(And you can never go home anymore)Mama!No, I can never go home anymore
Do you ever get that feeling?You wanna kiss and hug her?Do it now, tell her you love herDon't do to your mom what I did to mineShe grew so lonely and in the endAngels picked her for a friend (never)And I can never go home (never) anymoreAnd that's called "sad"
