| My mama told me, my mama said
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| Mama, something happened today
 | 
| A boy came up to me, who said he’d lost his way
 | 
| He followed me and gently held my hand
 | 
| Tomorrow he said, he’d take me to sugar land
 | 
| Mama said
 | 
| «Run baby, run, go find a place to hide
 | 
| (Run)
 | 
| Sounds like the wolf to me, he’ll eat you alive
 | 
| (Run)»
 | 
| «Run baby, run, go find a place to hide
 | 
| (Run)
 | 
| Close all the doors, don’t let that wolf inside»
 | 
| Mama said
 | 
| Better listen to your mama
 | 
| 'Cause mama surely knows
 | 
| Better listen to your mama
 | 
| Don’t say I didn’t tell you so
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| But mama, he seemed to be so sweet
 | 
| And when he smiled at me, he knocked me off my feet
 | 
| He only wants to kiss and hold me close
 | 
| I must admit I weep for him and feeling the most, mama said
 | 
| «Run baby, run, go find a place to hide
 | 
| (Run)
 | 
| Sounds like the wolf to me, he’ll eat you alive
 | 
| (Run)»
 | 
| «Run baby, run, go find a place to hide
 | 
| (Run)
 | 
| Close all the doors, don’t let that wolf inside»
 | 
| Mama said
 | 
| Better listen to your mama
 | 
| 'Cause mama surely knows
 | 
| Better listen to your mama
 | 
| Don’t say I didn’t tell you so
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister
 | 
| You better run before he knows, he makes
 | 
| Every tingle in your body quit
 | 
| Be careful, not to lose your
 | 
| Before you know that he have complete control, run
 | 
| You’re missing the taste that’s left on to his lips
 | 
| But he can drink it dry on every drip
 | 
| He’d be the only one who make you cry
 | 
| And you can do what’s up that
 | 
| «Run baby, go, go find the place to hide
 | 
| Sounds like the one to me who’ll leave to the night
 | 
| Run baby, go, go find the place to hide
 | 
| Close all the doors, don’t let that wolf inside», mama said
 | 
| Baby, listen to your mama
 | 
| 'Cause mama surely knows
 | 
| Baby, listen to your mama
 | 
| 'Cause I will show you some
 | 
| Baby, listen to your mama
 | 
| 'Cause mama surely knows
 | 
| Baby, listen to your mama, yeah
 | 
| Pay attention, little sister |
