Verse 1
(G major) (F major) (G major) Mama,
the worst thing in the world
is to tell your (F major) mother you don't feel good.
(G major) I went home one night
and said, Mom, I got a cold.
(F major) I don't feel good.
She said, Take your clothes off. (G major)
I said, (C major) Come on, Mom.
I'm 39 years old.
(G major) She says, What happene
(F major) d?
You grew something else
since the last (G major) time I saw you?
(C major) You answer, not me. (G major)
Unbelievable. (F major) Mama.
(C major) What a wonderful word,
ladies and (C major) gentlemen.
I always repeat it
because (G major) it is a wonderful (C major) word.
Ah. (F major)
(C major) What enjoyment does my mother have?
(F major) You know, (G major) she goes to church.
(F major) All the (G major) years that
I know my mother.
(F major) Every Saturday confession.
(G major) With her girlfriend Angie.
(C major) One side of the hand
you couldn't go to confession,
(G major) (C major) you have a bruise on of the shoulder.
(G major) And she (C major) called her mother,
good morning, (F major) (G major) (F major) ex cuse
I can't go to con (G major) fession,
I have a bruise on of the shoulder.
My mother says don't get nervous,
you (C major) tell me the sen (G major) tence.
I'm going to (C major) tell it to the (G major) priest.
(F major) My mother doesn't (G major) talk to Angie
anymore.
(C major) She goes, that son of a gun,
what a (G major) swinger.
She don't tell me those things. (F major) (G major)
(E minor) Mom.
(G major) I said, (C major) Mom, what do you think
about the priests getting married?
As long as they married the nun. (G major)
Otherwise, (C major) there's going to be sex and
(G major) communication. (F major) (G major)
(C major) Unbelievable,
these women are so delightful,
no education,
but they're the smartest
women in the world. (F major)
Another thing I've got to tell you
that really fascinates me,
(A minor) you know, every time I leave the (F major) house.
goes, where are you going to Patsy?
(C major) I said, I'm going to work.
You have the (F major) car?
Yes.
You have a St. Christopher (C major) statue
on top of (F major) the dashboard?
(C major) I said, Mom, I got 14 St. Christopher statues.
I can't (G major) see where I'm driving anymore.
I said, in fact,
I got four St. Christopher's
looking backwards.
In case the cops come,
they're gonna warn me.
