I HAD A TALK WITH MAMA

I had a talk with mama
tried to make her understand
you're not the greatest in this world
but you are my loving man

I had a talk with mama
told her that I loved you so
I had a talk with mama
and she said "just let him go"

But I said his warm embrace
is what I dreamed about
And mama said a bank account
will keep you warm when the fire gives out

I had a talk with mama
told her how we planned to wed
I had a talk with mama
but I didn't hear a word she said.
