[Verse 1]
Mama, Billy's not like all the rest
Out of all the boys I’ve known he's the best
You say that I'm too young to love
And to cross him from my mind

[Refrain]
Ah, but mama it’s different this time

[Verse 2]
Billy has a job after school
He drives a car and the way he looks is cool
The boy I thought I loved last week
He sure fed me a lie

[Refrain]
And mama it's different this time

[Verse 3]
You see this class ring that I wear, he gave it to me today
I put it on this golden chain and we're gonna marry someday
The other girls all envy me 'cause they know Billy's mine

[Refrain]
And mama it's diffеrent this time
Oh, but mama it's differеnt this time
