Healing Hearts Through the Arts

Shirah Chante is Helping God's People with Relationships

My mama said money donโ€™t grow on trees I said I wish it did cause it answers all things Said a wise man with a thousand wives They loved him until his demise Mama donโ€™t you cry Mama wipe your eyes Mama donโ€™t you grieve All is vanity My daddy said donโ€™t call me Charles Marry a good black man But all I want is to play my guitar And sing my pain away All those things I never could say Daddy donโ€™t you cry Daddy wipe your eyes Daddy donโ€™t you grieve All is vanity Well thereโ€™s nothing new under the sun Your mama donโ€™t love me no more The grass is greener on Indian shores Julie donโ€™t love a black man Julie said but Iโ€™m in love with him Julie donโ€™t you cry Julie wipe your eyes Julie donโ€™t you grieve All is vanity Madea said be a good girl Listen to your mama Donโ€™t cause no trouble I said I hate you You know itโ€™s not my fault Iโ€™m so sorry with all my heart Girl donโ€™t you cry Girl wipe your eyes Girl donโ€™t you grieve All is vanity

Love healing hearts,

Shirah Chante
