Mama's Got a Girlfriend Now (Live)

This first number is a song that I wrote
And I found myself home, at around
3 or 4 in the afternoon one time, which is... not a time that I'm usually at home
And I sat down in front of the TV
Picked up the remote
Turned on the television
And bigger than life, bigger than that was Geraldo Rivera
And so, of course, I panicked and grabbed the remote and... changed it
And instead today, on the Geraldo show we'll have women who left their husbands for another woman

And you see, for me, people's sexual preference is really no one else's business
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, are we that bored with our own sex lives to really have to concern ourselves with other people's?
I hope not, you know
So this is a song I wrote called "Mama's got a girlfriend now"

Papa, he left home today
Says he ain't comin' back again
Says he ain't gonna be nobody's second best
Just 'cause mama's got a special kind of friend

Well, papa he left home today
Says he ain't comin' back no more
Says he ain't gonna take no back seat
How could mama do him so low?

But mama's got a girlfriend now, boy
Mama's got a girlfriend now
Mama's got a girlfriend, mama found a true friend
Mama's got a girlfriend now

You see, mama don't watch your damn football
And your beer drinkin' just won't do
You're just stayin' out late and you're preachin' the hate
And you never have been true

You see, mama she want her somebody
Who will let her be herself
So she's leavin' you and your stinky ways
'Cause she's found somebody else

And mama's got a girlfriend now, boy
Mama's got a girlfriend now
Mama's got a girlfriend, mama found a true friend
Mama's got a girlfriend now

Papa he left home today
Wavin' his hands and cryin'
You could tell by the sound and the tone in his voice
That his heart was slowly dyin'

But mama said, "Boy if I ever
Catch you 'round here again
You ain't never gonna have nobody else
Not a woman or a man"

And mama's got a girlfriend now, boy
Mama's got a girlfriend now
Mama's got a girlfriend, mama found a true friend
Mama's got a girlfriend now

Mama's got a girlfriend now, boy
Mama's got a girlfriend now
Mama's got a girlfriend, mama found a true friend
Mama's got a girlfriend now

Thank you, thank you
