Lyrics My Mother in Law - Etta James

My Mother in Law

I’m sick and tired of your mother, tellin' me what to do
She’s always stickin' her nose in my business, it seems I married her instead
of you
Oh my mother-in-law
Oh she makes me sick
Oh my mother-in-law
I got to get away from her quick, now
Got to get away from her quick
I’ve tried and tried to get along, but nothing I do is right
If she can’t mind her business, I’m telling you what I’m goin' to do
I’m packing my bags and leaving tonight
Oh my mother-in-law
Oh she makes me scream
Oh my mother-in-law
It’s worse than a horrible dream, now
Oh yeah, she’s worse than a horrible dream
Wooh…
Somebody has got to go (It won’t be me)
It’s either her or me (It won’t be me)
I’m sick and tired of your mother, there’s not enough room for us three
Oh, my mother-in-law
Oh, she worries me so
Oh, my mother-in-law, now
You know she’s got to go now, yeah, you know she’s got to go
Oh, my mother-in-law
Oh, she worries me so (she drinks all of my booze)
