Lyrics
Yeah, mama don't treat me wrong
Come and love your daddy all night long, alright
Hey hey, uh-huh, alright
See the gal with the diamond ring?
She knows how to shake that thing, alright
Hey hey, uh-huh, alright
Tell your mama, tell your pa
I'm gon' send you back to Arkansas
Honey, you don't do it right (ain't do it right, baby)
You don't do it right
Yeah!
See the woman with the red dress on?
She can d-d-d-d-do it, do it all night long, alright
