One Short Life Motörhead

My mama told me lots of things
About the life, we lead
Told me it was too easy
To live a life of greed
She said you be a good man
And I'll be proud of you
'Cause you can't do no better
If that's all you learn to do

All we got is one short life
Far as we can find
And if you don't know how to live
The world will be unkind

No, no curse upon my name
No way I look at a bad guy
And think that I'm the same
No I won't be blamed
I live without dishonour
I won't have to die ashamed

Old lady told me plenty
Told me what to do
How to act in society
How to make it through
She said always mind your manners
And don't you talk no trash
And if you hear somebody dissing you
Go over and kick his ass
