As I said' this is the song for the Mamas (La la da da da da...) Whatever mama say You best do it Whatever mama say You best do Whatever mama say You better listen to your mama Wash your face' use some soap Make your bed' fold your clothes Clean your plate and chew your food Don't talk back and don't be rude Take your shoes off at the door' Don't track no mud along this floor Don't forget to take the garbage out Don't want no excuses anymore Call your sister' cut the grass Think you're smart? Not so fast Take your fingers off the remote control because Mama's watching that Do the dishes' feed the dog Put out the cat and praise the Lord It wouldn't hurt you to go to church any once in awhile' just get going What mama say I'm gonna do Mama said that I should settle down with a girl like you I'm gonna work real hard' it's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna give you all my lovin' and make you a mama too Sugar' that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too (La la da da da da...) Whatever mama say You best do it Whatever mama say You best do Whatever mama say You better listen to your mama I won't lean back in my chair Will not run down the stairs And in case of emergency I'll wear some fresh underwear I'll take the car in when it's in need of repair I'm gonna get myself a job but I won't cut my hair "I beg your pardon?" that's what my mama say "Boy don't get smart and don't talk to me that way! Who do you think you are' boy? You better behave" "I gave you life' child' I can take it away!" What mama say I'm gonna do Mama said I should be settled down with a girl like you I'm work real hard' it's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna give you all my lovin' and make you a mama too Oh' that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too (Singing La la da da da da...) Singing that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too Singing that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna make you a mama too Singing La la da da da da... Whatever mama say You best do it Whatever mama say You best do it Whatever mama say You better listen to your mama
