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