No Man’s Mamma |
| You may wonder what’s the reason |
| For this great big smile; |
| Say, I haven’t been so happy |
| You may wonder what’s the reason |
| For this great big smile; |
| Say, I haven’t been so happy |
| In the longest while! |
| Got a big load off my mind |
| Here’s the papers, sealed and signed; |
| And the judge was nice and kind |
| All through the trial |
| This ends the five-year war |
| I’m sweet Miss Waters once more! |
| I can come when I please, I can go when I please |
| I can flit, fly and flutter like the birds in the trees |
| Because I’m no man’s mamma now! |
| Hey, hey! |
| I can say what I like, I can do what I like |
| I’m a gal who is on a matrimonial strike; |
| Which means, I’m no man’s mamma now! |
| I’m screamin', «There, I know how |
| A fella feels gettin' out of jail,» |
| I’ve got twin beds |
| But I take pleasure in announcin' one’s for sale! |
| Am I makin' it plain? |
| I will never again |
| Drag around another ball and chain! |
| I’m through |
| Because, I’m no man’s mamma now! |
| I can smile, I can wink, I can go take a drink |
| And I don’t have to worry what my hubby will think! |
| Because, I’m no man’s mamma now! |
| Get it fixed! |
| I can spend if I choose, I can play and sing the blues |
| There’s nobody messing with my ones and my twos |
| Because, I’m no man’s mamma now! |
| You know that there was a time |
| I used to think that men were grand |
| But no more for mine |
| I’ve gone and labeled my apartment |
| «No Man’s Land!» |
| I got rid of my cat, cause my cat’s name was Pat |
| Won’t even have a mailbox in my flat! |
| Because, I’m no man’s mamma now! |
