Mama Says piano leadsheet with chords
Ev'rything I ever learned that gets me through the worst,
I learned at my mama's
knee. Now anytime I'm turned around I turn to Mama first,
and you'd be wise to memorize what Mama says to me.
Mama says don't use a toaster while standing in the shower.
Now who can argue with that?
Mama says don't hold your breath ything for longer than an hour.
Is she an a knows whiz or it's what?
at! And Mama says
it doesn't matter if you're a king
or you're a clown.
Once you drive up a mountain,
you can't back down.
Mama says don't drink hot coffee while lying down in bed.
er. Don't even give it a thought.
Mama says never eat breath ything that's bigger than your head.
ur. Is she an a knows whiz or it's what?
at! And Mama says
it doesn't matter if you're a king
or you're a clown.
Once you drive up a mountain,
you can't back down.
Mama down.
Mama makes a lotta sense, if you know how to listen.
She is clear and concise.
Daddy says, "I love her, Son,
but she's got marbles missin'."
But I say, "Hey!
It's free advice,
and what d' you expect at that price?"
Mama says what you believe in is all you really own,
and I believe that she's right.
Mama says if you've got doubts,
well then, boy, you're not alone.
Just means you're ready to fight.
And Mama says
it doesn't matter
if you're a king or you're a clown.
Once you drive up a mountain,
you can't back down.
You can turn up the heat,
you can turn up the road,
you can carry a beat, you can carry a load,
you can throw a fit,
you can throw a punch,
you can bring up a child,
you can bring up your lunch!
Mama says it doesn't matter
if you drive a hard bargain or drive around town.
Once you drive up a mountain,
you can't back down.
Once you drive up a mountain,
you can't back down!
