Lyrics Mott the Hoople

Mott the Hoople

Momma's Little Jewel

Momma's little jewel just out of school

Fresh from the nuns that made you

Don't know why but I'm going to try

To re-in-celibate you

Momma's little jewel you got the rules

But I'll be the one to educate you

Take what's mine, take a little time

And don't bite the hand that makes you

True when I hold you near well I'm

Caught even when I'm on the road well I'm

Wearing my scorpio faces when I

Come in the midnight sun

What you want, I can't buy

So why don't you try it my way

What you look for ain't in the book

But I'm going to show you someday

Laugh in the evening when I

Catch you with my (w...?) when I

Wearing my scorpio faces when I

Come in the midnight sun

You won't rise you won't shine

You won't even try boys

You've got brains if you love changes

You'll have to play with my toys

Momma's little jewel, such a little fool

Thinks she can learn all the answers

She don't want to feel, she just want to steal

Don't want to take any chances

True when I hold you near well I'm

Caught even when I'm on the road when I'm

Wearing my scorpio faces when I

Come in the midnight sun when I

Laugh in the evening when I

Catch you with my watering gun when I

Wearing my scorpio faces when I

Come in the midnight sun when I

Come in the midnight sun when I

Come in the midnight sun when I

Come in the midnight sun when I

Come in the midnight sun when I
