Sharon Jones - Mama Don't Like My Man lyrics

rate me

Oh, mama, mama, mama

Why you don't like my man?

Oh, mama, mama, mama

Why can't you understand?

You say he's rough around the edges

He don't always act right

But when we're all alone

Don't you know he treats me right?

Now, loving him could be so easy

Loving him could be so easy

But mama don't like my man

No, she don't like my man

Don't like the way he dress

Or the cigarettes he smokes

Don't like the company he keeps

Or the color of his jokes

You say he ain't no good

You says he's rough and he's lazy

How can I explain?

How the way he drives me crazy

But loving him could be so easy

Loving him could be so easy

But mama don't like my man

No, she don't like my man

Oh, mama, mama, mama

Why you don't like my man?

Whoa, mama, mama, mama

Why can't you understand?

Now, loving him could be so easy

Loving him could be so easy

But mama don't like my man

No, she don't like my man
