I straddled my bicycle when I was ten years old
I rode it up on Maxwell Hill where all the big boys go
Way down at the bottom there's a creek bed six feet wide
If you peddle fast enough you can make the other side

Chorus:
Mama come quick I think I fell
And hurt myself again
Mama come quick you know too well
How much I still depend on you
Pickin' me up and dustin' me off
And sendin' me on my way
'Cause nothing heals as much as your lovin' touch

I fell in love for the first time when I was almost grown
I heard that love could hurt real bad, though I had not been shown
Everybody told me she would only break my heart
But I wouldn't listen to them 'cause I was way too smart

Repeat Chorus

Yeah daddies teach us how to ride
How to catch and throw
But when things don't go the way they should
A boy knows where to go

Repeat Chorus

Oh mama come quick
I need your lovin' touch
Yeah mama come quick
I need your lovin' touch
