Lyrics
Mama....©2013..Tony Annunziata
Mama said the devil sent her / with good looks and a temper
To cause me pain / and misery
But mama doesn't know / when I turn the lights down low
How good my Jenny / is to me
While we were back in High School / playing us some make-out
We were learning about life
Mama said no / I told her let me go
I asked and Jenny said she'd be my wife
CHORUS
So don't be talking about her temper / a mere peccadillo on her chi
When I'm old what I'll remember / is Jenny loving me
Mama let it go / cause I don't want to know
I'm not asking for advice
Look who I've become a husband and your son
Trying to live a happy life
Chorus 2x and fade...................
