It’s a good year for the roses
I bought myself a bucket full
Gonna give it to my true love
She’s given everything to me
And when I wonder
Where I ‘m gonna get some lovin’
I think I found her
But she’s married to the man
who’s always calling me his son

ooooooh, don’t mess around with mama
ooooooh, she is the one who make me….

When they invite me to a party
They tell me bring your partner too
Then I call my pretty mama
And we’re having fun for two

And when I wonder
Where I'm gonna get some lovin’
I think I found her
But she’s married to the man
who’s always calling me his son

ooooooh, don’t mess around with mama
ooooooh, she is the one who make me…
ooooooh, don’t mess around with mama
ooooooh, she is the one who make me sing

And when I wonder
Where I ‘m gonna get some lovin’
I think I found her
But she’s married to the man
who’s always calling me his son
