A
I got a big fat Mama with a big fat boy
D                             A
Really thinks she's something else
A
But I love that woman like fish loves the water
B                   E
And there is nobody else
A
I'm gonna tell you woman better do as you're told
       D                    Db   C   B
If you don't, I'm gonna bringing you down
           A
I've got a big fat Mama
            C      D      A
And there's no one else around

       A
I said say you need me
            C
Come on and say you need me
       D                 A
I said say you need me
