Lyrics: Angelique-O, Angelique-O, you mama's got to take you back, Angelique-O, Angelique-O, teach you all the things you lack You never got time to sweep the dirt You mama's got to take you back, You never got time to wash a shirt, You mama's got to take you back, You never got time to cut and peel You mama's got to take you back, You think you can make it on sex appeal You mama's got to take you back, Mama's got to take you back, Teach you all the things you lack, When she sends you back to me We'll live together in harmony You never learn how to make a stew You mama's got to take you back, Your biscuits, Lord, I can hardly chew, You mama's got to take you back, De pants I'm wearing is full of holes You mama's got to take you back, While you're runnin' around in a big mink stole, You mama's got to take you back, Mama's got to take you back, Teach you all the things you lack, When she sends you back to me We'll live together in harmony |
