Momma Told Me Lyrics by Crystal Waters

Crystal Waters

1997

[Intro]
Damn, momma even told me there be days like this
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna tell you a little story
About that man on the street
"Hello, do you remember me?"
Why he could barely speak
He didn't even know my name
His eyes sparkled just the same
He didn't even know my pain
And all is fair in the game
[Chorus]
My momma told me that I was pretty
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would leave me
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
[Verse 2]
So long ago he said he love me
So long ago he stole my heart
So long ago he left me for another
I was sure he hurt that we were apart
But he didn't even know my name
Guess my face wasn't quite the same
He didn't even stop to see
The love pouring out of me
[Chorus]
My momma told me that I was pretty
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would leave me
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
My momma told me that I was pretty
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would leave me
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
[Bridge]
The world revolves fate deals the cards
You don't get to choose if you win or loose
Yet you learn there are no rules
[Chorus]
My momma told me that I was pretty
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would leave me
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
My momma told me that I was pretty
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would leave me
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
My momma told me that I was pretty
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would leave me
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
[Outro]
My momma t— that I was—
That I wo— someone to love me
She didn't t— that he would—
She didn't s— he'd break my heart, no
My momma— that I was—
That I wo— someone to l—
She didn't tell me that he would—
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
My momma— that I was—
That I would find me someone to love me
She didn't tell me that he would—
She didn't say he'd, he'd break my heart, no
