【Intro】 Mama knew what she was doing She caught my daddy with a smile Well, Mama, I learned a thing or two But I'm gonna do it my style 【Verse 1】 Mama always looked so certain She knew exactly what she wanted She picked my daddy out of the crowd And somehow kept his heart enchanted I watched her all my life I saw the way she held her ground She never needed to chase him She just knew when love came around So yes, Mama, you're a good woman You proved it with your life You found yourself a good man And you made him your husband for life 【Pre-Chorus】 But I can't wear your story And I can't borrow your heart What worked for you was beautiful But mine will have a different start 【Chorus】 Mama caught her man And I know I'm gonna catch mine too But I won't copy everything she did I've got my own way to choose I know what I want And I know what I won't take My love is somewhere out there And I'll find him in my way 【Verse 2】 Maybe he'll be waiting in Paris Maybe dancing somewhere in Rio Maybe I'll meet him in Tokyo Or hear his laugh in Mexico Maybe he's quiet and steady Maybe he's wild and full of charm Maybe he knows how to make me laugh And knows how to hold my heart I don't need a perfect picture I don't need somebody else's dream I just need a man who sees me And likes the woman that I am 【Pre-Chorus】 I can learn from my Mama I can take what she taught me But being a good woman Means becoming who I need to be 【Chorus】 Mama caught her man And I know I'm gonna catch mine too But I won't copy everything she did I've got my own way to choose I know what I want And I know what I won't take My love is somewhere out there And I'll find him in my way 【Bridge】 Pack my bags, I'm ready There's a whole world waiting outside If my kind of man is somewhere out there Why should I stay inside? Paris, Rio, Tokyo New York, Rome, maybe more If love is hiding somewhere I'll knock on every door And if the first one isn't right I'll simply keep moving on I'm not afraid of looking My adventure has just begun 【Chorus】 Mama caught her man And I know I'm gonna catch mine too But I won't copy everything she did I've got my own way to choose I know what I want And I know what I won't take My love is somewhere out there And I'll find him in my way 【Outro】 Mama, you did just fine You found the man you wanted And I'm proud to follow your example But I'm writing my own story So somewhere in this great big world My kind of man is waiting I don't know his name yet But I'm already on my way Maybe Paris, maybe Rio Maybe somewhere I can't see Wherever you are, handsome Leave a little room for me I'll travel around the world Until I find the right one And when I do, I'll smile and say Mama, I found my man
