Too Late for Mama [Zoo Loo Tribute to Brenda Fassie - Mabrr]

Ten kilometers barefooted in the bush
Started raining on the way to fetch some water
Poor woman had a baby on her back
Was struck by lightening on the way
To fetch some water

She tried hiding under a tree to save her child
Poor woman had no place to go
Lightening caught her with her baby on her back
Friends relatives ran for her

It was too late
It was too late
Too late for mama
Oh no

Husband came running to the scene yeah
Poor man held his dead wife in his arms
Eyes full of tears not believing the nightmare
Knelt down and prayed for this was a painful loss

It was too late
Too late for mama (mama)
Mama mama mama
Oh poor mama
It was too late
Too late
Too late for mama
Oh mama mama
Mama with a little baby
She's gone
She's gone
But she's gone
Oh poor mama
Too late too late too late too late too late too late
It was too late

Mmm hmm her doughter
Said daddy
Hey Papa
Oh poor mama
Wake my mama
I want my mama

Ten kilometers barefooted in the bush
Started raining on the way to fetch some water
Poor woman had a baby on her back
Was struck by lightening on her way
To fetch some water

It was too late
Too late for mama
Oh mama mama
Oh poor mama
It was too late
Too late

Too late for mama
Oh mama mama
Mama with a little baby
She's gone
She's gone
But she's gone
Oh poor mama
Too late too late too late too late too late too late
It was too late
