The Man your Mama was 
Siusan O'Rourke 7-09

I may be young but My story's old
I'm married to a man with spine and no soul
Who leaves me here alone at night to sit by the phone
In this rusty tin can on wheels that he calls a Home, Oh

My Daddy tried to tell me so
You never would amount to much But I had to go and
throw away my future on a drunk so and so
Oh you're never gonna be the man your Mama Was

Chorus
Well she worked all night
and cleaned all day
a Sixty hour workweek for thirty hour pay
To make the burning in your bellies go away
You're never gonna be the Man your Mama was

After Catting round you slither in
Your tired alibis and your cheshire grin
Stinking like a cocktail of tobacco and Gin
And you're thinkin I dont have the sense to know
                                                           where you been, Boy

I used to think it was just a Phase
A colorful reminder of your younger days
But you havent grown the wiser & you're stuck in
                                                                               your ways
Oh You're never gonna be the man your Mama Was

Chorus
Well she worked all night
and cleaned all day
A sixty hour workweek for thirty hour pay
To make the burning in your bellies go away
Your never gonna be the man your mama was


Well it came to me in a Flash of Light
Shortly after living through our Ninetynineth fight
Your only Goal is not to work a day in your life
and to cheat and drink your way through every
                                                                   miserable night

Im packing up my treasured things
my salt and pepper shakers and my napkin rings
To find a man who'll pull his weight instead of
                                                                       my strings
Oh your never gonna be the man your Mama was

Chorus
Well she Worked all night
And cleaned all day
Sixty hour workweek for thirty hour pay
To make the burning in your bellies go away
Your Never gonna be the man your Mama was
