I Chose Good

I shoulda listened to my mama
She told me stay away from the drama
"Yeah, son be careful what you wish for
Take a bite no more than a mouthful"

And when I didn't take the warning
I'd always know in the morning
She caught me crying in kitchen
Mama said, "Son, when you gonna listen?"

I've had some hits and misses
I know perfection is ambitious
This is the biggest decision I'll make

That's why I chose you
That's why I went and chose you
She didn't raise no fool
That's why I went and chose you
Thank God I got this right
'Cause the moment that I
Saw you that's when I knew
Guess what (What?)
Mama, I chose good

I chose good (Yes I did)
I chose good
(I chose good) Yeah!

Only say it when you mean it (Mean it)
She said, "I'll know when I feel it" (Feel it)
Someone I get stupid drunk with
3AM still up talking nonsense

And when you're down she'll be your pick me up
And every time that you start acting up
She'll pull you back in line
And that's when you'll know it's right

I've had some hits and misses
I know perfection is ambitious
This is the biggest decision I'll make

That's why I chose you
That's why I went and chose you
Yeah, yeah
She didn't raise no fool
That's why I went and chose you
Thank God I got this right
'Cause the moment that I
Saw you that's when I knew
Guess what? (What?)
Mama, I chose good

(I chose good) Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh-oh
I chose good, yeah
(I chose good)
I never lie
(I chose good)
Yes I did
I chose good
(I chose good)

That's why I chose you
That's why I went and chose you
She didn't raise no fool
That's why I went and chose you
Thank God I got this right
'Cause the moment that I
Saw you that's when I knew
Guess what (what)
Mama, I chose good
