Your Momma
Didn’t your momma raise you better than that,
when in the house you take off your hat.
Tell me that wasn’t a smart aleck comment you said,
your momma will spank your butt red.
For you my boy I got some news,
quit that foul language that you use.
Otherwise you will have to cope,
with a mouthful of momma’s dish soap.
Starting to eat dinner before saying grace,
will definitely get you a slap in the face.
Now eat everything that is on your plate,
or something bad you can anticipate.
Your unconscious lack of respect,
big trouble you are sure to expect.
Making fun of people who are old and fat,
your momma raised you better than that.
Don’t let your friends influence how you act,
because momma will find out for a fact.
Momma wants you to become a responsible man,
and to always do the best that you can.
However if you continue to be mean,
you may never see seventeen.
As your conscience, I say stop being such a brat,
for your momma who raised you better than that.
