[Verse 1]
They came this morning with a dog on a chain
They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name, oh no
Yeah, my mama was a rocker way back in '53
Buys them old records that they sell on TV
And I know Chuck Berry wasn't singing that to me, oh no

[Chorus]
Said mama, that's alright
It's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life, your world

[Verse 2]
I watch that fortune wheel, but never get to spin it
You made me promises, I don't think you meant it
If there's some sunshine, baby, I'm gon' get out in it, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Mama, 'cause that's alright
It's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
My life, your world
[Verse 3]
I tried to leave but the traffic had been stopped
The beach was burning and someone was throwing rocks
They said an aeroplane had fallen on my block, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Mama, that's alright
It's your world
Hey, this is my life
She's my girl
Yeah, my life, your world
My life, your world
My life, your world
My life, your world, oh, ooh
Yeah, yeah, it's my life, your world
