What Would My Mama Say

What would my Mama say

If she knew what we had been doing?

Oh, I know my brother too well, honey

I know he would never approve

Of the night I was walking in the footsteps

The footsteps of a woman

And you were right behind me, baby

Walking in a man's shoes

We've been fighting our feelings such a long time

But going this far wasn't on our minds

Now it just seems such a heavy load

We let our emotions get out of control

What would my Mama say?

(What would your Mama say?)

Oh, tonight I was walking in the footsteps

(Walking in the footsteps)

(What would your Mama say?)

What would your Mama say?

And you were just as guilty, baby

(Walking in the footsteps)

(Walking in a man's shoes)

Walking in a man's shoes

Oh, but what we did was bound to happen

You were getting restless with just (Just fun and play)

But I was saving my love for a special moment

(Special moment)

Oh, something like our last wedding day

What would my Mama say?

(What would your Mama say?)

If she knew what we had been doing?

(But don't tell her, babe)

What would your Mama say?

And you see I know my daddy too well, honey

I know he would never, never approve

(What would my Mama say?)

(Say what?)

Oh, tonight I was walking in the footsteps

(Walking in the footsteps)

The footsteps of a woman

(What would your Mama say?)

Oh, and you were right behind me, baby

(Walking in the footsteps)

(Walking in a man's shoes)

I said I'm walking in a man's shoes

(What would your Mama say?)

(Say what?)

(What would my Mama say?)

What would my Mama say?

(What would your Mama say?)

If she knew what we had been doing?

(But don't tell her, babe)

What would your Mama say?

Don't you know I know my daddy too well, honey

I know he would never, never approve

(What would my Mama say?)

(Say what?)
