Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah
Woo
[Verse 2]
Well, there is something going down
Like the storm in the sky, ooh
I ain't gonna be played by your behavior
How can I trust someone who's lying to me?
[Verse 3]
So bow out, go
Now, I said, bow out and leave
I said, take your stuff and go
'Cause you're not for me, no
[Verse 4]
Mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
See, mamma knows best when, ha, I feel down
To bring me up and always keep my feet on solid ground
Yeah
[Verse 5]
See, I ain't no old rag doll
That you can pick up and drop
And all of this inconsistent love, yeah
I think it's time that it S-T-O, stops
[Verse 6]
So bow out, go
Now, I said, bow out and leave
I said, take your bags and go
'Cause you're not for me, no
[Verse 7]
Mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
See, mamma knows best when, yeah, I feel down
To bring me up and always keep my feet on solid ground
Yeah
[Verse 8]
"Just be the best," my daddy said to me
Always use humor as your therapy, yeah
Don't ever take life too seriously
Just do you, 'cause you do you so perfectly
[Verse 9]
Hey, yeah, hey
Hey, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
See, mamma, mamma knows best
See, daddy, daddy knows best
See, mamma, mamma knows, she be the best, she be the best
[Verse 10]
See, mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
See, mamma knows best when, yes, I feel down
To bring me up, always keep my feet on the ground, sing it
[Verse 11]
See, mamma, mamma knows best
See, daddy, daddy knows best
See, mamma, mamma knows, she be the best, she be the best
See, mamma, mamma knows best
See, daddy, daddy knows best
See, mamma, mamma knows, huh, yeah
Yeah, yeah
