Your mama doesn't like me

She thinks I'm a sorry man

When she tells her friends about me

She says I'm a sorry man

And she asks you each day

Why would you stay with a sorry man

Well I was doing my best

Just trying to impress, still a sorry man

And I've got news for your ma

I'm the best she ever saw

No one could love your daughter like I do


Your mama told you father

She said I'm a sorry man

So he told me not to ever

Come back here again

So I told your dear old daddy

That he can't keep us apart

Because it's you and not your parents

Who can break my heart

And I've got news for your ma

I'm the best she ever saw

No one could love your daughter like I do


Well I tried to tell your mama

But I didn't want to fight

Well they'll be the same tomorrow

So we're leaving here tonight

Tomorrow they'll be waking

To a sad sorry dawn

And then they'll be sorry

When they see that we're gone

Cause I've got news for your ma

I'm the best she ever saw

No one could love your daughter like I do
