Mother-In-Law Blues Songtext

von Buddy Guy

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
