                        TAKE YOUR MAMA

Your taxi's waitin', your bags are packed
You say you're leavin' and you ain't comin' back
I'm down on my knees - I'm beggin' you
If you're gonna leave me honey, take your mama too

     Take your mama
     Don't leave her behind
     Take your mama
     She drives me out of my mind
     Take your mama
     When you leave, take your mama too

She showed up at our doorstep, suitcase in hand
Wearin' her robe and slippers, and her polyester pants
You said she'd only stay for a week or so
But Baby, that's been eleven months ago

     Take your mama
     Don't leave her behind
     Take your mama
     She drives me out of my mind
     Take your mama
     When you leave, take your mama too

Well she lays around on my couch all day
Drinkin' beer and eatin' up my take home pay
Watchin' her soaps on that old boob tube
I can't even live in my own livin' room

     Take your mama
     Don't leave her behind
     Take your mama
     She drives me out of my mind
     Take your mama
     When you leave, take your mama too
