[Chorus ]
Mama said I'll understand when I'm older
But I've made the same mistakes over and over
Over and over
I've made the same mistakes over and over
Mama said I'll understand when I'm older
But I've made the same mistakes over and over
Over and over
I've made the same mistakes over and over
[Verse]
Can't understand why you lyin'
It's just never perfect timin'
I don't like it when you try me
Oh, you really try me (Oh, you really try me)
Life ain't fair, I can't deny it
I can't deny it
When mama told me I was silent
This can't be right
[Chorus]
Mama said I'll understand when I'm older
But I've made the same mistakes over and over
Over and over
I've made the same mistakes over and over (Oh)
Mama said I'll understand when I'm older
(But I've made the same mistakes over and over)
'Stand when I'm older
I've made the same mistakes over and over (Over and over)
Over and over and over, yeah
[Bridge ]
I'll understand
She said I'll understand
Over and over
[Chorus]
Mama said I'll understand when I'm older (Mama said)
But I've made the same mistakes over and over (Mama said I'll understand)
Over and over (Over and over and over and over and over, no)
I've made the same mistakes over and over
Mama said I'll understand when I'm older (Mama said over and over and over)
But I've made the same mistakes over and over
Over and over
I've made the same mistakes over and over
