She was a bottle blond,
She had her 7's on.
When I think about it now,
Just a cougar on the prowl.
She was hotter than hell,
Had me under a spell.
Got that ass doin' yoga,
Didn't care that she's older.

Got off the stage,
Ended up at her place.
We were burning up the bed,
Fire needed to be fed.
Mornin' sun hit her face,
Maggie May showed her age.
And I remember what my Mama said,

Don't talk to strangers,
Don't do all your thinking with your little head.
Like mama said, just like mama said,
My mama said.
Don't talk to strangers,
Just wrap it up so you don't wind up dead,
Like mama said, just like Mama said,
My mama said.

She likes 'em nice and young,
She likes 'em fresh and hungry.
With fire in her eyes,
Let's you try her on for size.
Show you a trick or two,
To teach you something new.
Full of Bacardi and botox,
Shes forty and so hot.

The light of the day,
Had somethin' different to say.
My head started to spin,
When I saw her son walkin' in.
I'll bet he felt like a fool,
'Cause I knew him from school.
And I remember what my mama said.

Don't talk to strangers,
Don't do all your thinking with your little head.
Like mama said, just like mama said,
My mama said.

Don't talk to strangers,
Just wrap it up so you don't wind up dead.
Like mama said, just like Mama said,
My mama said.

Hey pretty lady it's crazy,
You're almost twice my age.
I wanna dance on your body,
The way I shake it on stage.

Hey pretty lady it's crazy,
You're almost twice my age.
I wanna dance on your body,
The way I shake it on stage.

Hey pretty lady it's crazy,
You're almost twice my age.
I wanna dance on your body,
The way I shake it on stage.

Hey pretty lady it's crazy,
You're almost twice my age.
I wanna dance on your body,
The way I shake it on stage.

Don't talk to strangers,
Don't do all your thinking with your little head.
Like mama said, just like mama said,
My mama said.

Don't talk to strangers,
Just wrap it up so you don't wind up dead.
Like mama said, just like Mama said,
My mama said.
