Mother-In-Law Blues
I'm in love with you baby
but your mother, she's got the mood
I'm in love with you baby
but your mother, she got the mood
I just can't help myself
lord, I got those mother-in-law blues
whenever I'd go for a ride in the country
she want to ride along too
I had to trade and get a sportscar
with bucket seats just for two
whenever I get a phone call
I bet your 5 against your 10
that she's on the extension line
just tryin' to listen in
whenever I try to watch television
and get me some peace of mind
I bet she's up to walk in my room
and twist to channel 9
a man's home is supposed to be his castle
where he is supposed to be the king
but as long as this woman is in my house
our love won't be a thing
I'm in love with you baby
but your mother, she's got the mood
I just can't help myself
lord, I got those mother-in-law blues
oh yeah, lord don't you know
I got those...
I got those mother-in-law blues
but your mother, she's got the mood
I'm in love with you baby
but your mother, she got the mood
I just can't help myself
lord, I got those mother-in-law blues
whenever I'd go for a ride in the country
she want to ride along too
I had to trade and get a sportscar
with bucket seats just for two
whenever I get a phone call
I bet your 5 against your 10
that she's on the extension line
just tryin' to listen in
whenever I try to watch television
and get me some peace of mind
I bet she's up to walk in my room
and twist to channel 9
a man's home is supposed to be his castle
where he is supposed to be the king
but as long as this woman is in my house
our love won't be a thing
I'm in love with you baby
but your mother, she's got the mood
I just can't help myself
lord, I got those mother-in-law blues
oh yeah, lord don't you know
I got those...
I got those mother-in-law blues
