Linda Ronstadt - The Only Mama That'll Walk the Line lyrics

rate me

written by Ivy J. Bryant / E. Ball

Central Songs (BMI)

Well everybody knows you been steppin' on my toes

And I'm gettin' pretty tired of it

I'm gonna hit you on the head with a pan of cornbread

If you had any sense you'd quit

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl

I said you were the only man in this whole world

So now you'd better do some thinkin' then you'll find

You got the only mama that'll walk the line

Well I'm a-workin' every day all you wanna do is play

I'm gettin' tired of staying home all night

Well I'm a-coming unglued from your funny little moods

Now honey baby that ain't right

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl

I said you were the only man in this whole world

So now you'd better do some thinkin' then you'll find

You got the only mama that'll walk the line

Well I'm a-packin' up my clothes

Nearly everybody knows that you're still just a-puttin' me on

And when I start a-walkin' gonna hear you start a-squawkin'

And a-beggin' me to come back home

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl

I said you were the only man in this whole world

So now you'd better do some thinkin' then you'll find

You got the only mama that'll walk the line

You got the only mama that'll walk the line

You got the only mama that'll walk the line
