Ma Baker lyrics
by Boney M



Freeze!
I'm Ma Baker
Put your hands in the air and gimme all your money

This is the story of Ma Baker
The meanest cat from ol' Chicago town

She was the meanest cat (In old Chicago town)
She was the meanest cat (She really moved them down)
She had no heart at all (No, no, no heart at all)

She was the meanest cat (Oh, she was really tough)
She left her husband flat (He wasn't tough enough)
She took her boys along ('Cause they were mean and strong)

(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she taught her four sons
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, to handle their guns
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she never could cry
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, but she knew how to die

They left a trail of crime (Across the U.S.A.)
And when one boy was killed (She really made them pay)
She had no heart at all (No, no, no heart at all)

(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she taught her four sons
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, to handle their guns
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she never could cry
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, but she knew how to die

She met a man she liked (She thought she'd stay with him)
One day he formed with them (They did away with him)
She didn't care at all (Just didn't care at all)

Here is a special bulletin
Ma Baker is the FBI's most wanted woman
Her photo is hanging on every post office wall
If you have any information about this woman
Please contact the nearest police station

Don't anybody move!
The money or your lives!

One day they robbed a bank (It was their last foray)
The cops appeared too soon (They couldn't get away)
And all the loot they had (It made them mighty mad)

And so they shot it out (Ma Baker and her sons)
They didn't want to hang (They died with blazing guns)
And so the story ends (Of one who left no friends)

(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she taught her four sons
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, to handle their guns
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she never could cry
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, but she knew how to die

(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she taught her four sons
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, to handle their guns
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, she never could cry
(Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma) Ma Baker, but she knew how to die
