Lyrics

Mmm hmm
Well well
Mmm
Mmm hmm
Well
Sitting here
I was just sitting here thinking
Way back when I was a child, yeah
My mama, she called me one evening
She said "Sit down, let's talk a little while"
My mama said:
Candy's good and sweet
But it's also bad for your teeth
A apple a day will keep the doc away
Too many may cause a tummy ache
'Cause everything that's good to you
It ain't always good for you
Now everything that's good to you
It ain't always good for you
Mmm hmm
Well well
Yeah
Like every child, I forgot awhile
Wrapped up in your embrace
I couldn't resist your charming smile
Or your handsome face
But as I sit here my counting tears
I still hear a voice in my ear
My mama said:
Candy's good and sweet
But it's also bad for your teeth
A apple a day will keep the doc away
But too many may cause a tummy ache
'Cause everything that's good to you
It ain't always good for you
Now everything that's good to you
It ain't always good for you
It ain't always, it ain't always good for you
Mmm hmm
Well well
Listen here, listen what mama said:
'Cause everything that's good to you
It ain't always good for you
But everything that's good to you
It ain't always good for you
'Cause everything - it ain't always good for you
It ain't always, it ain't always good for you
