Momma you live and die by what you say Church-going, God-fearing would always pay For a tongue - every word of craziness It could all get us day
I was a squirt, and maybe I was 2 or 3 Out with momma - and at the grocery Hot and tired, I out a devil word The look momma gave me
screamed, "My son your mouth" Then a name to me She me
Trouble is as does Momma my name, it was: I say stuff for fun Trouble is as trouble Words always make a Her son of a gun She "You're a heckraiser, son"
3rd grade school room, had a friend name was Mark, Dressed like a in our play about Noah's Ark, Saw him standin' there in a big feathered suit, I "Hey Mark, you big duck!"
But that's not what came out or how it Next thing I I was gettin' pounded 50 classmates on the stage and Momma sighed "Boy, shut up!" She me
Trouble is as does Momma my name, it was: I don't wanna dumb Trouble is as says always make a mess Her son of a gun She "You're a heckraiser, son"
Weeks ago, lookin' with a Lucky Strike into the barn with a guy who said his name was Mike Started out when he said he was in love, I said "Whoa! I wanna be friends."
Didn't I said the other F-word Mike a punch, the cigarette flew upward Barn caught fire, and chickens all runnin' I my life had come to an end
was mad, saw her eyes lit up with flame I made up an excuse but she said "Careful you say" Reminding me words are often cause for blame Then she grabbed me by the - called me by my favorite name
Trouble is as trouble Momma my name, it was: I say stuff for fun Trouble is as trouble always make a mess Her son of a gun She me
Trouble is as does yelled my name, it was: But I don't sound dumb Trouble is as trouble Words make a mess Her son of a gun She "You're a heckraiser, son"
Momma said, "Son your mouth never fit ya Careful whatcha say, cuz your words always git ya" Aw Heck!
