Somebody's Mama
Somebody's Mama: Unveiling Love's Journey in Time
Lyrics
Well that new tattoo still stung just a little
Reflecting on the recent pain of a new tattoo.
The old guy said "Well, what do you think?
An old man inquires about the tattoo's significance.
Is this what you wanted?
Questioning if the tattoo represents what was desired.
Just the word 'freedom'
The tattoo contains the word 'freedom' surrounded by eagles' wings.
Surrounded by eagles' wings"
Description of the tattoo's visual elements.
He said "It's none of my business,
The old man clarifies that it's not his business but asks about an angel in the tattoo.
But who is this angel,
Inquiring about the person depicted in the tattoo.
That you had me cover up?"
Questioning why the angel was covered up.
I said "Oh, that's just a name,
The narrator explains that it's just a name, associated with a past love.
It still makes me think of a girl I used to love"
Expressing that the name still triggers memories of a former lover.
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now
The narrator assumes that the past love is now a mother.
I bet she's covered in diamonds, that car that she's driving
Speculating on her current affluent lifestyle.
Cost more than most people's house.
Imagining the expensive car she might own.
She used to say how she wanted babies and I was too young to slow down
Recalling her desire for babies when the narrator was not ready.
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
Reiterating the assumption that she is now a mother.
We used to sit on the hood of my old blue Camaro and watch the sun come up
Revisiting memories of sitting on a car hood and watching the sunrise together.
Stare out across that big sleepy desert, like the whole world revolved us
Describing a past moment when they felt the center of the world.
And I hope she'd smile if she knew right now, that I was talking like this
Hoping she'd appreciate the narrator's sentiments.
But she's out there somewhere, makin' somebody happy, wherever she is
Assuming she's making someone else happy now.
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now
Repeating the assumption that she is now a mother.
I bet she's covered in diamonds, that car that she's driving
Reiterating thoughts on her potential wealth and lifestyle.
Cost more than most people's house.
Speculating on the luxury of her current car.
She used to say how she wanted babies and I was too young to slow down
Remembering her desire for babies when the narrator was unprepared.
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
Reaffirming the assumption that she is now a mother.
I don't know where she is,
Expressing uncertainty about her current whereabouts.
I'm glad I don't know where she lives,
Grateful for not knowing where she lives to avoid unexpected encounters.
'Cause one day I just might show up at her door.
Contemplating the possibility of showing up at her door someday.
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now
Reiterating the assumption that she is now a mother.
I bet she's covered in diamonds, that car that she's driving
Reiterating thoughts on her potential wealth and lifestyle.
Cost more than most people's house.
Speculating on the luxury of her current car.
She used to say how she wanted babies and I was too young to slow down
Remembering her desire for babies when the narrator was unprepared.
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
Reaffirming the assumption that she is now a mother.
Oh, I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
Repeating the assumption that she is probably a mother now.
