Watch out with that woman!
Don't ever make her your wife!
Watch out with that woman!
She'll only ruin your life!
If I had heard what mama said
Early in the spring
I wouldn't be lying in this empty bed
Suffering. It's so tormenting.
Cause I remember mama told me.
I thought she would be satisfied
Thought she would be true
And now this miss greatly hurt my pride
What a fool. Yes, I'm a fool.
Cause I remember mama told me.
I guess I have to go away
Somewhere out of town
Cause I can't stand around and hear them say
There goes the clown. You put him down
I should have heard what mama said.
