Eric Clapton

[Verse 1]
Mama, mama, them hold papa
Say they charge him fe' smoke ganja
If me never jump the fence them hold me too
So tell me mama, what we going to do?

[Chorus]
Oh, mama, what you going to do now?
Oh, mama, what you going to do?
Oh, mama, what you going to do now?
Oh, mama, what you going to do?

[Verse 2]
Next week, next week is the case
Him have a dread judge to face
Him ha' fe' either see in space
Or make the doctor man work on him face

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Next door neighbor, them hold your son
They say they find him with one gun
An' there is no need to mention
Him going to get an indefinite detention

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Him know nobody
So him ha' fe' remain in custody
Him see Babylon, him stand up an' screw
Say, him never knew it was a curfew
