Текст песни Mamma's Baby - Johnny Cash

She said that she just couldn't leave her mother

I met a girl out in our town
I tour all my resistance down
I thought what a dream this oughta be
I went with her a month or two
And like any boy in love will do
Ask her if she would marry me

But she was a Mama's Baby, Mama's Baby
Though she loved me like she never loved another
She was a Mama's Baby, Mama's Baby
And she said that she just couldn't leave her mother

Then I said well then probably
The only thing that's left for me
It's a going come back in a year and so
A year have past away
And then I try to win her hand again
She even packed her clothe, but wouldn't go

'Cause she was a Mama's Baby, Mama's Baby
Though she loved me like she never loved another
She was a Mama's Baby, Mama's Baby
And she said that she just couldn't leave her mother

Well I hang around 'til finally
I persuaded her to marry me
Her mother sayd that it would be alright
We bought ourselfs a little home
And I finally got her all alone
But she stays with her mother every night

'Cause she's a Mama's Baby, Mama's Baby
Though she loved me like she never loved another
She's a Mama's Baby, Mama's Baby
And she said that she just couldn't leave her mother

Well she said that she just couldn't leave
Leave, leave, leave - her mother
