Mother may I
Oh, mother may I
I wanna go outside tonight
Tell me it's alright
Mother may I

Mommy just listen
Something in the wind keeps calling me
And I'm old enough now to answer
I want everything that's mine given all to me
I need your, your blessing
'Cause your baby was born to be out of control
You know it help me makes home safely
But I'm still not sure if I want to live to be old

Mother may I
Oh, mother may I
I wanna go outside tonight
Tell me it's alright
Mother may I

Now mommy I know you're watching
I've been a good boy, I never bring you shame
I'll never know all your secrets
But it's impossible for us not to be the same
Now I've got one chance y'all
To do whatever it is I'm suppose to do
And when you think I'm ready
Please make sure that I come back home with you

Mother may I
Oh, mother may I
I wanna go outside tonight
Tell me it's alright
Mother may I
Mother may I
Oh, mother may I
Say I wanna be alive tonight
Tell me it's alright
Mother may I

One way you can show you really love me is to let me go
Oh, but make sure that you tell my heavenly father I said hello

Mother may I
Oh, mother may I
I wanna go outside tonight
Tell me it's alright
Mother may I
Mother may I
Oh, mother may I
Say I wanna be alive tonight
Tell me it's alright
Mother may I
