Lyrics Mama Told Me Not to Come - Lou Rawls
Want
some
whiskey
in
your
water?
Sugar
in
your
tea?
What's
all
these
crazy
questions
They
are
asking
me?
This
is
the
craziest
party
That
could
ever
be
Don't
turn
on
the
lights
'Cause
I
don't
wanna
see
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
She
said,
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
son"
Open
up
the
window
Let
some
air
into
this
room
I
think
I'm
almost
choking
From
the
smell
of
stale
perfume
And
the
cigarette
you're
smoking
'Bout
to
scare
me
half
to
death
Open
up
the
window
Let
me
catch
my
breath!
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
She
said
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
son
That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
son,
son,
son"
The
radio
is
blasting
Someone's
knocking
at
the
door
I'm
looking
at
my
girlfriend
She
just
passed
out
on
the
floor
I've
seen
so
many
things
I
ain't
never
seen
before
Don't
know
what
it
is
But
I
don't
wanna
see
no
more
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(Mama
told
me
she
said)
She
said
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
no"
(no,
no)
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
son"
And
Mama
told
me,
mama
told
me
Mana
told
me,
mama
told
me
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(Mama
told
me
not
to
come)
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
son"
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun"
(that's
what
she
said,
she
said)
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
no"
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun"
(Mama
told
me)
And
Mama
told
me,
mama
told
me
Mama
told
me,
mama
told
me
She
told
me
not
to
come
(Mama
told
me
not
to
come)
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun"
(that
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun)
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun,
son"
"That
ain't
the
way
to
have
fun"
(oh
no,
no)...
Maybe
I
should've
listened
