Lucky Dube - It's Not Easy текст песни

Lord have mercy...






I remember the day I called mama on the telephone

I told her mama I' m getting married

I could hear her voice on the other side

Of the telephone she was smiling

And she asked me a question

That I proudly answered

She said son did you take time

To know her?

I said mama she is the best

But today it hurts me so to go back to

Mama and say

Mama I' m getting divorced oh

I' m getting divorced





The choice I made didn' t work out the way

I thought it would

This choice I made it hurts me so mama

This choice I made didn' t work out the

Way I thought it would

This choice of mine oh....

Mama said to me





Chorus (x2)

It' s not easy to understand it son

But I hope you' ll make it

You' ll be happy again





I remember in church when the preacherman

Read the scriptures

You looked so beautiful, so beautiful

And so innocent

I did not know that behind that beauty

Lies the true colours that will destroy me

In the near future





This choice I made didn' t work out to be

What I thought it would be

Oh mama this choice I made

Didn' t work out the way I thought it would

Now I' m hurting





I remember when I held you by the hand

Preacherman read the scriptures

Putting words in your mouth

Maybe what the preacherman said

Was not something that was within you

Now I know what they mean when

They say





Beautiful woman

Is another man' s plaything

Oh Lord I' m hurting now

This choice I made didn' t work out the way

I thought it would

This choice of mine oh



mama said to me

it's not easy to understand it son

but i hope you'll make it

you'll be happy again
