Lyrics

Oh, mama, mama, mama Why you don't like my man? Oh, mama, mama, mama Why can't you understand? You say he's rough around the edges He don't always act right But when we're all alone Don't you know he treats me right? Now, loving him could be so easy Loving him could be so easy But mama don't like my man No, she don't like my man Don't like the way he's dressed Or the cigarettes he smokes Don't like the company he keeps Or the color of his drawers You said he's ain't no good You says he's rough and he's lazy How can I explain? How the way he drives me crazy But loving him could be so easy Loving him could be so easy But mama don't like my man No, she don't like my man Oh, mama, mama, mama Why you don't like my man? Whoa, mama, mama, mama Why can't you understand? Now, loving him could be so easy Loving him could be so easy But mama don't like my man No, she don't like my man
