"Mama Told Me" lyrics

"Mama Told Me"
(originally by Eric Burdon and the Animals)

Want some whiskey in your water?
Some sugar in your tea?
What's all these crazy questions they're askin' me?
This is the craziest party that could ever be
Don't turn on the lights 'cause I don't wanna see

Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
Heh, that's what she said
That ain't the way to have fun, no
That's what she said

Open up the window, let some air into this room
I think I'm almost chokin' from the smell of stale perfume
And that cigarette you're smokin' 'bout scare me half to death
Open up the window, sucker, let me catch my breath

Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That's what she said, that's what she said
That ain't the way to have fun, no, son
That's what she said
That ain't the way to have fun, no, son

The radio is blastin', someone's knockin' at the door
I'm lookin' at my girlfriend, she's passed out on the floor
I seen so many things I ain't never seen before
Don't know what it is, I don't wanna see no more

Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That's what she said, that's what she said
That ain't the way to have fun, no, son
That's what she said
That ain't the way to have fun, no, no, no, no

That's what she said

Mama told me, mama told me, mama told me (Yeah-yeah)
Mama told me, mama told me, mama told me
That's what she said, that's what she said
Mama told me, mama told me, mama told me (Yeah-yeah)
Mama told me, mama told me, mama told me

That's what she said
