Mama, they comin'
To take you away
Mama, they comin'
To take you away
Don't know whatcha done, Mama
But they say they gonna make you pay
Mama, should I send a letter
To Uncle Leroy and Aunt Flo?
Mama, should I send a letter
To Uncle Leroy and Aunt Flo?
Just slide down into that envelope, Mama
Ain't no one gonna know
Mama, should I bake a cherry pie
And hide you inside?
Mama, should I bake a cherry pie
And hide you inside?
You're sure sweeter than cherries, Mama
And you know I never lie
Mama, should I make ya' pair a' wings
Outta wallpaper and wax?
Mama, should I make ya' pair a' wings
Outta wallpaper and wax?
So you can fly away, Mama
And never look back
Mama, should I ask Sweet Jesus
To come down and fight?
Mama, should I ask Sweet Jesus
To come down and fight?
Don't know whatcha done, Mama
But maybe He just might...
