"Mama Look A Boo Boo" lyrics

Ah-ha-ha-ha

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 dey start to sing

"Mama, look at boo-boo," dey shout
Their mudder 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 dere," uh!
"Shut your mouth, go away"
"Mama, look at boo-boo dere," ah-ha-ha
Rr-rr-rr-rr-rr, ha-ha, [*clicking*] whoop

I couldn't even digest me supper
Due to the children's behavior
"John" (Yes, pop?), "come here a moment
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 dem screamin' 'round de place

"Mama, look at boo-boo," they shout
Their mudder tell them, "Shut up your mouth
That is your daddy," "Oh no
My daddy can't be ugly so"
"Shut your mouth, go away," hoo!
"Mama, look at boo-boo dere," uh!
"Shut your mouth, go away"
"Mama, look at boo-boo dere," ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Woo-hoo-hoo, Rr-rr-rr-rr-rr, ha-ha, [*clicking*] whoop

So, I began to question de mudder
"These children ain't got no behavior"
So, I began to question de mudder
"These children ain't got no behavior"
"They're playin' with you," my wife declare
"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 mudder tell dem, "Shut up your mouth
That is your daddy," "Oh no
My daddy can't be ugly so"
"Shut your mouth, go away," hoo!
"Mama, look at boo-boo dere," uh, uh
"Shut your mouth, go away"
"Mama, look at boo-boo dere," ah-ha-ha

(Shut your mouth!)
