CYour mama Gdoesn't like Cme
She thinks I'm a CsorGry Fman
CWhen she tells her Gfriends about Cme
She says I'm a CsorGry Fman
CAnd she asks you each day
GWhy would you Cstay with a sCorGry Fman
CWell I was doing my best
GJust trying to Cimpress, still a CsorGry Fman
GAnd I've got Cnews for your Fma
I'm the Gbest she Cever Fsaw
GNo one could Clove your dFaughter Glike I Fdo
Your mama told you father
She said I'm a sorry man
So he told me not to ever
Come back here again
So I told your dear old daddy
That he can't keep us apart
Because it's you and not your parents
Who can break my heart
And I've got news for your ma
I'm the best she ever saw
No one could love your daughter like I do
Well I tried to tell your mama
But I didn't want to fight
Well they'll be the same tomorrow
So we're leaving here tonight
Tomorrow they'll be waking
To a sad sorry dawn
And then they'll be sorry
When they see that we're gone
Cause I've got news for your ma
I'm the best she ever saw
No one could love your daughter like I do
