Hey Mamma

Kids running crazy around the house Is he at the bar again? Fast train to wit's End Throwing away money you don’t have Here he comes, strolling in Stinking of booze and smoke Sorry, darlin, got caught up with the boys Shooting pool and unno, shaking the week off Aw come on, don’t be like that Don’t start that damn crying, Jesus Christ A man can’t go out for a few hours I have to come back to this What’s for dinner? Hey, Mamma, kick him out He isn’t gonna change anytime soon Go get some love, real love Love yourself Tell him to take a left down Last Laugh Lane
