| Well, listen now boys… to what I say,
|
| This ol' game of love is easy to play,
|
| There’s only one way to see… what the future will hold,
|
| You better — check out her mama before you get bold
|
| Check out her mama, before you say I do;
|
| Check out her mama 'cause' jus' between me and you;
|
| Unless her mama is fine, you better take your time;
|
| She’s gonna look jus' like her mama on down the line.
|
| Now, you think you’ve found the girl of your dreams,
|
| Well, pretty things aren’t just what they seem.
|
| 'f you wanna see — what the future will hold,
|
| You better — check out her mama before you get bold.
|
| Check out her mama, before you say I do;
|
| Check out her mama 'cause' jus' between me and you;
|
| Unless her mama is fine, you better take your time;
|
| She’s gonna look jus' like her mama on down the line.
|
| Now, don’t get in a hurry 'cause this ain’t no race.
|
| And don’t get taken in by a pretty face.
|
| You know that beauty is only skin deep,
|
| So play your cards right or a sweeter (?) man be.
|
| Check out her mama, before you say I do;
|
| Check out her mama 'cause' jus' between me and you;
|
| Unless her mama is fine, you better take your time; |
