She left the cradle when she learned to crawl
With mama on the front porch she walked off
Headed for the city in a pair of high heeled shoes
And if she'll leave her mama son she'll sure leave you
Don't take it so hard and blame yourself
Cause you ain't the first one that she ever left
She loves her mama but she loves a good time too
And if she'll leave her mama son she'll sure leave you
[ horns ]
Oh you can give her love and you give her hell
No matter what you give her she wants somethin' else
You know she's gonna do exactly what she wants to
And if she'll leave her mama son she'll sure leave you
