May 12: I never worry ’cause… “Mama Said” written by some of the Brill Building/1650 Broadway folks in about 1961 and sung here by The Shirelles. Happy Mothers Day to anyone who’s ever helped a kid out by giving extra love and saying the right thing when needed… (and a special shout-out to my mom, Ruthie; I love you). LYRICS & SONGFACTS SPOTIFY
The Shirelles were out of Passaic High school in N.J
I was raised there & did my practice teaching at Passaic High. Had one of the girls in my history class.
