Papa brought home the sugar Mama taught me the deeper meaning
She don't like my kick pleat skirt She don't like my eyelids painted green
She don't like me staying up late In my high-heeled shoes
Living for that rocknroll dancing scene
Papa says leave the girl alone mother
She's looking like a movie queen Mama thinks she spoilt me
Papa knows somehow he set me free
Mama thinks she spoilt me rotten
She blames herself
But papa he blesses me
Its a rough road to travel
Mama let go now
Its always called for me
Sometimes I get that feeling And I want to settle And raise a child up with somebody
I get that strong longing And I want to settle And raise a child up with somebody
But it passes like the summer I'm a wild seed again Let the wind carry me
