Lyrics edited by Chris Sistrunk (2020) | |
Hackers ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold | |
They'd rather give you a shell than diamonds or gold | |
Laptops with stickers and black faded hoodies and each night begins a new day | |
If you don't understand them and they don't die young | |
They'll probably just hack away | |
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be hackers | |
Don't let 'em pick Linux or scan Internets | |
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and vets | |
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be hackers | |
'Cause they'll always stay home and they're always alone | |
Even with someone they love | |
Hackers like Las Vegas hotels and vodka and red bulls | |
Little warm servers and Twitter and Lulz of the night | |
Them that don't know 'em won't like 'em | |
And them that do sometimes won't know how to take 'em | |
They ain't wrong they're just different | |
But their pride sure lets 'em do things to make you think they're right | |
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be hackers | |
Don't let 'em pick Linux or scan Internets | |
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and vets | |
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be hackers | |
'Cause they'll always stay home and they're always alone | |
Even with someone they love | |
Mammas don't let your babies grow up to be hackers | |
Don't let 'em pick Linux or surf Internets | |
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and vets |
