Lyrics
pre-song vocal intro
A mother's love is what she gives to teach us how to live,
Encouraging her offspring with the wisdom that she gives.
So, here are just a few of them that mother gave to me
Apply them in your own life and so happy you will be.
Vs1
I don't mean maybe, for the umpteenth time
Don't be a baby, Man up and face the crime
Your gonna be laughing on the other side of your face sometime
I don't mean maybe, for the umpteenth time
Vs2
Wash your hands after you've been fast asleep
Use the soap and you scrub until you bleed
You don't know what you might a been scratching or just how deep
Wash your hands after you've been fast asleep
Chorus
So you think this song is funny, she'll slap that smile right off of your face
She'll give you something to cry about before you leave this place

During church, don't be passing no notes
Pay attention, what you hear is no joke
You're liable to get a bare butt spanking if I have to clear my throat (her cue for us to knock off any activity)
During church, don't be passing no notes
Chorus
Instrumental (verse)
I don't mean maybe
Wash your hands
Don't be passing no notes
Don't be a glutton
I don't mean maybe, for the umpteenth
