If You Can't Be Good, Be Good at It |
Mama never raised any smart mouth kid |
She told us once and that was it She said, son sit down, son that’s enough |
Mama really loved us but she sure was tough |
Could never get away with callin' her bluff |
You been runnin' all night, chasin' those skirts |
You ought to be ashamed, late again for work |
Boy, don’t you know you’re on the wrong track |
And throwin' it away, you never get it back |
Hard lovin' mamas don’t cut you no slack |
But my old man was a little bit more inclined to understand |
'Cause daddies know, when to hang on and when to let go He said, «Bein' addicted to love’s a real bad habit |
If you can’t be good, son, be good at it» |
Now mama’s still on me 'bout wrong and right |
Hopin' one day I might see the light |
My heart’s been broke, I make mistakes |
I still try to give 'em as much as I take |
Now old habits are hard to break |
But my old man was a little bit more inclined to understand |
'Cause daddies know, now when to hang on and when to let go He said, «Bein' addicted to love’s a real bad habit |
If you can’t be good, son, be good at it If you can’t be good, be good at it» |
But my old man was a little bit more inclined to understand |
'Cause daddies know, when to hang on and when to let go He said, «Now bein' addicted to love’s a real bad habit |
If you can’t be good, son, be good at it If you can’t be good, be good at it» |
Well, if you can’t be good, be good at it Take that to your old man, son |
Don’t worry about bein' good, I’ll show you how it’s done |
