The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Duck and dive to survive
Daddy lied mama cried
Things are never learned in school
Guess they taught me all too soon
Mama didn't raise no fool
Feel alone, daddy's gone
Didn't ask for this broken home
You heard the rumors now they're true
Could have easily been you
Mama didn't raise no fool
Suddenly it becomes plain to see
That's the way it was meant to me
Spare a thought and save the child
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Dry your eyes, take my hand
He's not coming back, so understand
Don't break an unwritten rule
Stick together play it cool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Suddenly it becomes plain to see
That's the way it was meant to me
Spare a thought and save the child
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Suddenly it becomes plain to see
That's the way it was meant to me
Spare a thought and save the child
Spare a thought and save the child
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama didn't raise no fool
