It's so hard to take you home
It’s not easy 'cause my mother's racist

Your smiling face on the wrong side
Your smiling face on the wrong side
Your smiling face on the wrong side of beautiful
You’re on the wrong side of beautiful
We're on the wrong side of beautiful
Yeah!

Ma mamma mamma mamma ma
Ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
(I hope you're taping this jam, you know)

There's nothing new in this
It's old and no-one done it before
A [?] would tune to it
I'm sure, I'm sure

And your smiling face is on the wrong side
Your smiling face on the wrong side
Your smiling face on the wrong side of beautiful

She said ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
She said ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
There's something wicked now, money
Money’s something sick, y’ll
Don't you know we are different from before?
You’ve got to smile at me
You're face is white but I love it, I love it
You've got to smile at me
You're face is black but I love it, mummy
You’ve got to smile at me
You're face is black and I love it too
She's got to smile at me
Your face is white but I love you three

Ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
Ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
(Ok, we're gonna do "your smiling face")

Your smiling face on the wrong side
Your smiling face on the wrong side
Your smiling face on the wrong side of beautiful

And everytime ya get
Ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
Ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma

Even though my brother's racist I love you too
And I know that you let the world sing strong
I said even though this world is racist I still love you so
Even though they got to know
I said ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma
Ma mamma mamma mamma mamma mamma

Your smiling face is on the wrong side
Your smiling face is on the wrong side
