| I wonder why nobody don’t like me
|
| Or is it the fact that I’m ugly?
|
| I wonder why nobody don’t like me
|
| Or is it the fact that I’m ugly?
|
| I leave my whole house and home
|
| My children don’t want me no more
|
| Bad talk inside de house dey bring
|
| And when I talk they start to sing
|
| Mama, look at boo boo they shout
|
| Their mother tell them shut up your mouth
|
| That is your daddy, oh, no
|
| My daddy can’t be ugly so
|
| Shut your mouth, go away
|
| Mama, look at boo boo dey
|
| Shut your mouth, go away
|
| Mama, look at boo-boo dey
|
| I couldn’t even digest me supper
|
| Due to the children’s behavior
|
| John, come here a moment
|
| (Yes, pa)
|
| Bring de belt, you’re much too impudent
|
| John says it’s James who started first
|
| James tells the story in reverse
|
| I drag my belt from off me waist
|
| You should hear them screamin' round de place
|
| Mama, look at boo boo they shout
|
| Their mother tell them shut up your mouth
|
| That is your daddy, oh, no
|
| My daddy can’t be ugly so
|
| Shut your mouth, go away
|
| Mama, look at boo boo dey
|
| Shut your mouth, go away
|
| Mama, look at boo-boo dey
|
| So I began to question the mother
|
| These children ain’t got no behavior
|
| So I began to question the mother
|
| These children ain’t got no behavior
|
| They’re playing with you my wife declared
|
| You should be proud of them, my dear
|
| These children were taught too bloomin' slack
|
| That ain’t no kind of joke to crack
|
| Mama, look at boo boo they shout
|
| Their mother tell them shut up your mouth
|
| That is your daddy, oh, no
|
| My daddy can’t be ugly so
|
| Shut your mouth, go away
|
| Mama, look at boo boo dey
|
| Shut your mouth, go away
|
| Mama, look at boo-boo dey
|
| Shut your mout', go away |
