My mama told me not to play the guitar

Stuck in a bottle neck you won't get far

Hanging around with your sleeping in friends

Elegant women, here I go again

My mama told me early to bed

Early to rise is what she said

My mama told me to play the six string

My mama told me but here I go again

My mama told me go to church when

I'm able And never live a moment of sin

My mama told me not to gamble at the table

Daddy said I gotta win win win win

My mama told me not to play the guitar

See the world but you won't get far

Hanging around with your pool hall friends

Loose women aah here I go again
