I was born in mid-class in a boring town
Where the neighbours are fine
No talk ‘bout up and downs
And there was me
A li’l rock ’n’ roll boy
I was called the black sheep of society
But I was coloured by creativity
I was just more, I was so cool, yeah
‘Cause mama didn’t raise no fool
I was an outlaw, nobody understood
I lived my life, like nobody would
I was high on life, and nobody knew
I was driven by a love called rock ’n’ roll
Which is the thing you’ll never be too old for
I felt like a champ, and I rolled up high school, yeah
‘Cause mama didn’t raise no fool
I wanna rock (you’re no fool)
I wanna roll (you’re no fool)
I wanna love (you’re no fool)
I wanna be like me (you’re no fool)
I wanna paint my life candy-striped
And I don’t waste my time
For the button-lipped
‘Cause mama didn’t raise no fool
No, mama didn’t raise no fool
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)
Today they call him crazy and a freak
But he feels good, he’s on the highest peak
And he don’t care what the others say
I'm on the highway number one
Push the pedal to the metal
I catched a horse called freedom
I fit in the saddle
And I feel free and I am cool, yeah
‘Cause mama didn’t raise no fool
(Didn’t raise, didn’t raise no fool)
‘Cause mama (mama-mah) didn’t raise no fool
(Didn’t raise, didn’t raise no fool)
‘Cause mama (mama-mah)
‘Cause mama (mama-mah)
‘Cause mama didn’t raise no fool
