Gary Morris - Mama You Can't Give Me No Whippin' lyrics

rate me

(Dave Loggins)

As a young boy my mama used to make me walk the line

But even then as now women were a weakness of mine

In grade school I was a mess

Pullin' up some little girl's dress.

Teacher would send me home from school what a witch!

Mama'd say "Bad boy, go get me that switch."

Chorus:

Mama you cant' give me no whippin'

Just for stayin' out all night

Mama you can't give me no whippin'

I'm old enough to know wrong from right

Mama you can't turn me over your knee

It's embarrassing to a man like me

Mamma I think I've got something that the girls like

Mama I think I might have something that the girls like.

I guess I was 'bout thirteen when this feeling came over me

I started learnin' how to talk the girls out of their virginity

Sneak 'em out into the light of the moon

Sneak 'em up into my bedroom

Mama'd catch us without a stitch and say

"Bad boy now get me that switch."

I remember celebratin' my eighteenth birthday

I headed out into the evening and I heard Mama say

"Boy don't cha be late."

I rolled in about 4 A.M.

Didn't know where I was or were I'd been

There was Mama with a belt in her hand

And I said "Hey! Mama your boy's a man..."
