Told My Ma Songtext
von Ace of Base

I told my ma ′bout the town I love so well
I told my ma 'bout the town I love
My time will come, raising up my family
I told my ma ′bout the town I love

I'm leaving for an island way down in the south
Where the roads are curved and dusty with no names
The people's so inviting, they′re smiling everywhere
With a tempo I can share (ah)

I told my ma ′bout the town I love so well
I told my ma 'bout the town I love
My time will come, raising up my family
I told my ma ′bout the town I love

I'd like to get together where there′s samba in the streets
In a tropical Favela to the beats
In Santa Catarina, a hot summer night
Are you ready to ignite? (Ah)


I told my ma 'bout the town I love so well
I told my ma ′bout the town I love
My time will come, raising up my family
I told my ma 'bout the town I love

I said, "Oh, oh, hungry eyes
Hungry eyes, my apprise all for you
Oh, hungry eyes
Until the morning arise"

I told my ma 'bout the town I love so well
I told my ma ′bout the town I love
My time will come, raising up my family
I told my ma ′bout the town I love

I told my ma (I told my ma) 'bout the town I love so well (′bout the town I love so well)
I told my ma (I told my ma) 'bout the town I love
My time will come, (my time will come) raising up my family (raising up my family)
I told my ma (I told my ma, oh, yeah)
′Bout the town I love (in a time, in a place where I'll raise my family)

I told my ma (I told my ma) ′bout the town I love so well ('bout the town I love so well)
I told my ma (I told my ma) 'bout the town I love
My time will come, (my time will come) raising up my family (raising up my family)
I told my ma (I told my ma, oh, yeah)
′Bout the town I love (in a time, in a place where I′ll raise my family)


I told my ma 'bout the town I love so well
I told my ma ′bout the town I love
My time will come, raising up my family
(Oh, yeah) I told my ma 'bout the town I love (in a time, in a place where I′ll raise my family)
