Mama Was Mad Songtext

von Streetwalkers

Running down the road, women on my tail
A beat-up Ford on a lonesome trail
Peg-Leg Annie's gonna scratch out my eye
She in league with the devil but don't ask me

Why - she took it so bad
Why - I used all that she had
Why - her Mama was mad
Mama was mad - Mama was mad

Stopped at a truck-stop outside New Orleans
Hunched in a corner eating gumbo 'n beans
In steps Roxy looking a mess
A rip in her blosue and a stain on her dress

Why - she's been ridin' the trucks
Why - she says everyone sucks
Why - she ran out of good looks
Out of good looks - out of good looks

But you end up sleazy, peepin' through keyholes on your bended knee
But you can't be easy, they'll bust up your head and steal your keys

I'm running down the road, women on my tail
One of these bitches gonna put me in jail
The sheriff o' the county wants me held on a rap
I sped through the border with a gal on my lap

Why - you can't catch me
Why - Down South I will be well
Why - I said everything's free
No you can't catch me

Mama was mad - Mama was mad
Mad as a Mother
Mama was mad - Mama was mad
Mad as a Mother
Mama was mad - Mama was mad
Mad as a Mother
Mama was mad - Mama was mad
Mad as a Mother
