What Mama Say

[Chorus] (La la da da da da) Whatever mama say You best do it Whatever mama say You best do it Whatever mama say You better listen to your mama [Verse 1] Wash your face, use some soap Make your bed, fold your clothes Clean your dishes, chew your food Don't talk back and don't be rude Take your shoes off at the door Don't track no mud along that floor Don't forget to take the garbage out Don't want no excuses anymore [Verse 2] Call your sister, cut the grass Think you're smart? Not so fast Take your fingers off the remote control because Mama's watching that Do the dishes, feed the dog Put out the cat and praise the Lord It wouldn't hurt you to go to church any once in a while, just get going [Verse 3] What mama say is what I'm gonna do Mama said that I should settle down with a girl like you I'm gonna work real hard, it's what I wanna do I'm gonna give you all my loving' and make you a mama too Baby, that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too [Chorus] [Verse 4] I won't lean back in my chair Will not run down the stairs And in case of emergency I'll wear some fresh underwear I'll keep it calling' when it's in need of repair I'm gonna get myself a job but I won't cut my hair [Verse 5] "I beg your pardon?" that's what my mama say "Boy don't get smart and don't talk to me that way! Who do you think you are, boy? You better behave" She said "I gave you life, child, I can take it away!" [Verse 6] What mama says Is what I'm gonna do Mama said I should be with a girl like you I'm gonna work real hard, it's what I wanna do I'm gonna give you all my loving' and make you a mama too [Verse 7] Sugar, that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too That's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too [Chorus]
