Out into the city streets
She's just a small town girl
Her whole life packed in a
But some of the lights did shine
And the work seemed harder,
That you ever thought they'd be
Cause sometimes you can't choose
It's that wind that tells you
When big mamas fall they can't
Once it all, mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rolling the dice of her life
She found herself in a fashionable
Took back all her best friends, yeah
And watched her family slip away
She's just like a lost soul
Caught up in that Hollywood scene
All the parties, all them limousines
She's such a good actress
Just a step away from the edge of the fall
No, she's caught between heaven and hell
I said, where's the girl I
When big momma's fallin' angel
Lose big, livin' out lies
Once in all, momma's fallin' angel
Lose it all, rollin' the dice
So her life's too much, too soon
or just a little too late
You go to where her ship came in
She was there just at forty -three
When big mamas fall in hell
You lose big heaven on your knees
Once in all, Mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, the dice of her life
Win big, Mama's fallen angel
Lose big, living out her lies
Once in all, Mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rolling the dice of her life
