Mama Told Me (Not to Come)

Will you have whiskey with your water

Or sugar with your tea ?

What are these crazy questions

That you're askin' of me

This is the wildest party

That there ever could be

Oh don't turn on the lights

'Cause I don't want to see

Mama told me not to come

Mama told me not to come

Mama said that ain't no way to have fun

Open up the window

Let some air into this room

I think I'm almost chokin'

On the smell of stale perfume

And the cigarette you're smokin'

S'about to scare me half to death

Oh open up the window

Let me catch my breath

Mama told me not to come

Mama told me not to come

Mama said that ain't no way to have fun

Radio is blastin'

Someone's knockin' on the door

Our hostess is not lastin'

She's passed out on the floor

I've seen so many things

That I ain't never seen beforwe

I don't know what it is

But I don't wanna see no more

Mama told me not to come

Mama told me not to come

Mama said that ain't no way to have fun
