Lyrics

My mama told me love is give and take
Take whatever he gives but for goodness sake
Don't let him know what your savin
Don't let him know bout your stash
My mama told me that's how men save their cash.

My sister told me love is take and give
Give in and take in his love you'll own his will to live
Don't let him know you want children
Don't let him know what you've planned
My sister told me that's how you catch your man


Could truth be so hard to please?
Could love be a bigger fool?
When it comes to romancing me
You should throw out all the rules

My daddy told me wedlock is love and hate
Hate whatever he loves or it will be too late
Don't let him do what he wants to
Don't let him fly like a bird
My daddy told me to go and spread the word

Just tell me how much you love me
Just wrap me up in your arms
When it comes to romancing me
I'm a victim of your charms

My Granny told me wedlock is hate and love
Love him when he makes you hate and just thank god above
Don't let him go to bed angry
Don't let him knock you around
My granny told me true love is made not found
My granny told me true love is made not found
My granny told me true love is made not found.
