Lyrics
Daddy dear, listen here
Your mama's feelin' blue
I don't see much of you
And that will never do
Once a week, your mama's cheek gets a kiss or two
Now I'm not showin' you the door
But I'm layin' down the law
You gotta see your mama every night or you can't see mama at all
You gotta kiss your mama, treat her
Right or she won't be home when you call
Now I don't care for the kind of a
Man who works on the installment plan
You gotta see your mama every night or you can't see your mama at all
For instance, Monday night, I sat alone
Tuesday night, you didn't phone
Wednesday night, you didn't call
Thursday night, the same old stall
Friday night, you dodged my path
Saturday night, ha, you took your bath
Sunday night, you called on me but
You brought your wife and your family
You gotta see your mama every night or you can't see your mama at all
You gotta kiss your mama, treat her
Right or she won't be home when you call
Now I don't care for the kind of a
Sheik who does his sheikin' once a week
You gotta see your mama every night or you can't see your
Mama, can't see your mama, you can't see your mama at all
