No Man's Mamma
Ethel Waters
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You may wonder what's the reason For this great big smile; Say, I haven't been so happy In the longest while! Got a big load off my mind, Here's the papers, sealed and signed; And the judge was nice and kind, All through the trial. This ends the five-year war, I'm sweet Miss Waters once more! I can come when I please, I can go when I please, I can flit, fly and flutter like the birds in the trees, Because I'm no man's mamma now! Hey, hey! I can say what I like, I can do what I like, I'm a gal who is on a matrimonial strike; Which means, I'm no man's mamma now! I'm screamin', "There, I know how A fella feels gettin' out of jail," I've got twin beds, But I take pleasure in announcin' one's for sale! Am I makin' it plain? I will never again Drag around another ball and chain! I'm through, Because, I'm no man's mamma now! I can smile, I can wink, I can go take a drink, And I don't have to worry what my hubby will think! Because, I'm no man's mamma now! Get it fixed! I can spend if I choose, I can play and sing the blues, There's nobody messing with my ones and my twos, Because, I'm no man's mamma now! You know that there was a time I used to think that men were grand, But no more for mine, I've gone and labeled my apartment "No Man's Land!" I got rid of my cat, 'cause my cat's name was Pat, Won't even have a mailbox in my flat! Because, I'm no man's mamma now
