You've Got to See Mama Every Night
Darling dear,
Listen Here,
Mama's feeling blue,
I don't see much of you,
And that'll never do,
Once a week,
Mama's cheek,
Gets a kiss or two,
I ain't showin' you the do'
But I'm layin' down the law,
Ya Gotta See Mama Ev'ry Night or Ya Can't See Mama At All,
Ya gotta kiss Mama, treat her right, or she won't be home when you call,
If you want my company,
You can't fifty-fifty me,
Ya Gotta See Mama Ev'ry Night or Ya Can't See Mama At All,
Ya Gotta See Mama Ev'ry Night or Ya Can't See Mama At All,
Ya gotta kiss Mama, treat her right, or she won't be home when you call,
I don't like that kind of man,
Who works on the installment plan,
Ya Gotta See Mama Ev'ry Night or Ya Can't See Mama At All.
Monday night, you didn't phone,
Tuesday night, I sat alone,
We'nsday night, you didn't call,
And on Thursday night, the same old stall.
Friday night, you took your bath,
Sat'day night, you dodg'd my path,
Sunday night, you had a date,
And it looks quite clear that I don't rate.
Ya Gotta See Mama Ev'ry Night or Ya Can't See Mama At All,
Ya gotta kiss Mama, treat her right, or she won't be home when you call,
I don't like that kind of Sheik,
Who does his sheikin' once a week,
Ya Gotta See Mama Ev'ry Night or Ya Can't See Mama At All.
