Lyrics

Mama's in love, papa's in love It's such a shame they don't love each other Papa's in a jam, mama's throwin' pans The game's up, it's time to run for cover Ooh, everybody's cryin' but they can't stop hopin' Everybody's lookin' for the door that's open Mama's making heat to keep the old fire smokin' Papa's hangin' on to his old love token You got love but you ain't got style You want your freedom but in a while You're lost children but you know for sure You gotta find out who your love is for (Ooh, baby, love ain't what it used to be) (You tellin' me? Not since you've been hanging around here) Mama, what you screamin' for, actin' like a demon for? And hey mama, quit wavin' them hands in the air (What? Don't talk to me that way) (Well, I don't see no reason to raise your voice to me, baby) You puttin' fat in the fire, you got meat for brains (Well, you don't give me comfort and a man's gotta get it somewhere) (Ooh, that's a shame) (Yeah, well) Well, mama's hangin' on to every word that's spoken But papa's hangin' on to his old love token (It's what it is) (Here goes, babe!) Oh, I don't wanna leave you, mama Yeah, I don't wanna leave you, papa Long-haired women gonna turn you to stone You can't beat 'em, 'cause you need 'em You gotta live, you gotta love Your love token's gotta fit like a glove Hey! Listen to the story about the dream that's broken You gotta keep a hold of your old love token Oh, I don't wanna leave you, mama (Mama, mama, mama, mama, mama) Oh, I don't wanna leave you, papa (Papa, papa, papa, papa, papa) Oh, I don't wanna leave, oh, I don't wanna leave Oh, I don't wanna leave, oh, I don't wanna leave you alone But I'm gonna have to, babe Yeah, yeah!
