Lyrics Mama Told Me Not to Come - The Jackson 5
Have
some
whiskey
in
your
water,
have
some
sugar
in
your
tea
What's
all
these
crazy
questions
they're
asking
me?
This
is
the
craziest
party
that
could
ever
be
Don't
turn
on
the
lights,
'cause
I
don't
want
to
see
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(mama
mama
told
me
not
to
come
yeah)
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(mama,
mama,
told
me)
She
said,
"that
ain't
no
way
to
have
fun,
son"
Open
up
this
window,
let
some
air
into
this
room
I
think
I'm
almost
choking
from
the
smell
of
stale
perfume
Well,
that
cigarette
you're
smoking
about
to
scare
me
half
to
death
Open
up
the
window,
sucka'
so
I
can
catch
my
breath
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(mama
mama
told
me
not
to
come)
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(mama
mama
told
me
not
to)
She
said,
"that
ain't
no
way
to
have
fun,
son"
Mama
told
me
(mama
yelling)
Mama
told
me
(mama
yelling)
(Mama
you
didn't
listen
to
me)
(But
mama,
but
mama,
let
me
explain!)
(Anything,
anything
but
the
whip!)
The
radio
was
blasting
someone's
knocking
at
the
door
I'm
looking
at
my
girlfriend
she's
passed
out
on
the
floor
I
seen
so
many
things
there,
I
ain't
never
seen
before
Please
don't
tell
me
what
it
is
(I
don't
want
to
see
no
more)
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(mama
mama
told
me
not
to
come)
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(mama
mama
told
me
not
to
come)
She
said,
"that
ain't
no
way
to
have
fun,
son"
Got
to
leave
this
place
Oh,
man,
come
on,
stay.
(No
man,
we
gotta
go)
Yea,
we
gotta
leave
(No,
man.
I
got
the
keys
here
alright?
You
can't
go
nowhere)
Hey
man,
I
gotta
go,
man,
It's
past
my
bedtime
(what
you
doin'
there,
kid?)
I'm
opening
the
door
(Come
on
man,
I
don't
want
to
miss
the
Flintstones)
Take
your
soda
pop
and
go
home,
Boy
(why
don't
you
stay
...
40
seconds
...
Na,
na.
See
that's
what
I'm
talking
about)
Mama
told
me,
mama
told
me,
mama,
mama,
mama
not
to
come
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
(See
that's
What
I'm
talking
about.
I'm
gonna
stay)
Mama
told
me
not
to
come
