[Verse]
Every since MoGnday IA've seen A7it comDing
When I say wGhat's wrong SAhe just sA7ays noDthing
But I aGin't about to let it go
ACause I loved her long eA7nough to know
[Chorus]
DWhen momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy
DSo daddy's gonna make momma hAappy tonight
AI've got a limo waiting and dinner reservations
AA corner table with some caDndle light
DWe gonna spend some money I'm gonna call her honey
DI wanna see the sparkle bGack in her eyes
When moDmma ain't happy ain't nobAody happy
So daAddy's gonna make moA7mma happy to-nDight
DI see in those grGeen eyes hAer red heA7ad teDmper
DAnd she can make JuGly aAs cold A7as DeDcember
Well, I loGve her every way she is
But brAother, I've discovered in tiA7mes like these
Go to chorus, feels like a key change but isn't, just vamp on E
DWhen momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy
DSo daddy's gonna make moAmma happy tonight
AI  told the baby sitter, fix macaroni dinner
AAnd try to have the kids in bDed by nine
DWe gonna spend some money I'm gonna call her honey
DI wanna see the spGarkle back in her eyes
When mDomma ain't happy ain't nobAody happy
So dAaddy's gonna make mA7omma happy to-nDight
DWhen momma ain't happy ainA't nobody happy
So dAaddy's gonna make mA7omma happy to-nDight

Every since Monday I've seen it coming

Cause I loved her long enough to know

[Chorus]

When momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make momma happy tonight

I've got a limo waiting and dinner reservations

A corner table with some candle light

We gonna spend some money I'm gonna call her honey

When momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy

A A7 D

So daddy's gonna make momma happy to-night

D G A A7 D

I see in those green eyes her red head temper

D G A A7 D

And she can make July as cold as December

Well, I love her every way she is

But brother, I've discovered in times like these

Go to chorus, feels like a key change but isn't, just vamp on E

When momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make momma happy tonight

I told the baby sitter, fix macaroni dinner

And try to have the kids in bed by nine

We gonna spend some money I'm gonna call her honey

I wanna see the sparkle back in her eyes

When momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy
