Mama’s Words
Make sure that coat’s buttoned
And put them mittens on
If you don’t tie that shoelace
It’s bound to come undone
Stay out of them puddles
You’re sure to catch the flu
If I didn’t tell you
Lord knows what you’d do
Mama’s words------------------------------------------- {Chorus
I search for every line
Mama’s words
Presents out of time
Now I wish I’d listened
To everything I heard
Wisdom was awaitin’
In Mama’s words
Sit up straight in Sunday school
Don’t fight and don’t pout
Don’t light up smokes behind the barn
I’m sure to find you out
Don’t say things in anger
You can never take ‘em back
Pay attention to that Bible
You’ll be on the right track
Mama’s words------------------------------------------- {Chorus
I search for every line
Mama’s words
Presents out of time
Now I wish I’d listened
To everything I heard
Wisdom was awaitin’
In Mama’s words
Now I'm findin' lessons in the phrases she preferred----------------- {Bridge
I'm still surprised when I speak and out come Mama’s words
Mama’s words------------------------------------------- {Chorus
I search for every line
Mama’s words
Presents out of time
Now I wish I’d listened
To everything I heard
Wisdom was awaitin’
In Mama’s words
Mama’s words------------------------------------------- {Chorus
I search for every line
Mama’s words
Presents out of time
Now I wish I’d listened
To everything I heard
Wisdom was awaitin’
In Mama’s words
Yes wisdom was waitin’
In Mama’s words
