Mama Says sing and play along

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!
