"Mama Said" lyrics

I asked my mama
Where I might find the kind of girl that go easy on my mind
But I can't recall what my mama said at all
Mama said

I know your mama
I know what she would say
She'd tell you look at me and never look away
You don't need to recall what your mama said at all

I told my mama the day I met you
You were the only one and I was all done feeling blue
She had a word to the wise, yeah
But I forgot her reply (I wanna be your mama, baby)

Mama said
Now don't you worry if it slipped your mind
She said I'm the funnest girl that you'd ever find (you'd ever find)
'Cause that girl be true, yeah
That's what your mama said to you
(You know you my moochie coochie)

With great respect, trust me I checked
Your mama wanted you to grow up strong
She'd rather see (she'd rather see)
You here with me (you here with me)
So I intend to shake you lose from the care and the comfort of mother goose

I don't like drama (nobody likes drama, baby)
I listen to my mama's voice (you need to listen to me)
If you said she said it, then I guess I have no choice (you don't)
I skip all my love to you
If that's what my mama said to do (I wanna be your mama now, baby)

Listen to me, boy
Mama's a girl and so am I
We know what's best for mama's good-looking guy
You can trust all my charms, yeah
Just rest here in my arms
Come here, baby (come on baby)
And rest here in my arms

Mama said
(And you're my little moochie coochie, haha)
