Well I remember way back, when I was just a boy,
A E
going places with my Mom and Dad.
It used to scare me to death how Momma used to act,
B7
after six or seven beers she?s had.
E
We were sitting at a table when Momma got disabled,
A E
all the liquor running to her head.
Soon I got to choking, Daddy wasn?t joking,
B7 E (MUTE)
when he grabbed me by the arm and said.
Don?t look now, your Momma?s got her boobs out
A E
showing everybody in town.
Faces turning red, we were wishing we were dead,
B7
there were people standing all around.
A E
When Momma gets to drinking, there ain?t much thinking,
A E
there?s nothing anybody can do.
A E
Just hope and pray there never comes a day,
B7 E
when my Momma?s out drinking with you.
E
Well we got her in the truck and we started driving home,
A E
when Momma said she had to go.
Daddy pulled it over, we were standing on the shoulder,
B7
while Momma?s putting on a show.
E
Then he started up the truck and Momma stood up,
A E
with her pants still around her knees.
When we heard Momma holler, ?If you give me a dollar,
B7 E (MUTE)
well I?ll let you take a peek at these!?
Don?t look now, your Momma?s got her boobs out
A E
showing everybody in town.
Faces turning red, we were wishing we were dead,
B7
there were people standing all around.
A E
When Momma gets to drinking, there ain?t much thinking,
A E
there?s nothing anybody can do.
A E
But you hope and pray there never comes a day,
B7 E
when my Momma?s out drinking with you.
A E
But you hope and pray there never comes a day,
B7 E A E
when my Momma?s out drinking with you.
