{Verse 1}
Hear no, speak no evil
Don't do nothing bad
That Chevy truck only goes
Down the wrong path
Mama knows best
So nod your head and say yes, yes ma'am
Rocks hitting your window, phone calls late at night
Mama's gonna blow a fuse if she catches you, that's right
She always knows best
So nod your head and say yes, yes ma'am
{Chorus}
Mama said not to curse
Watch out for four letter words
Yeah, they'll only hurt you in the end
Don't act like you don't know
You'll get a mouth full of soap
And she just can't say it enough
Don't you dare go saying you're in l-o-v-e, love
{Verse 2}
I know well as you, girl
That he sure looks cute
All dressed up in that Sunday morning suit
But I learnеd a thing or two
All those years in Sunday school
{Chorus}
Mama said not to curse
Watch out for four lеtter words
Yeah, they'll only hurt you in the end
Don't act like you don't know
You'll get a mouth full of soap
And she just can't say it enough
Don't you dare go saying you're in l-o-v-e, love
{Bridge}
He's telling you he's different
But that means he's just the same
These small town boys only got one thing on their brains
You're always asking me why Mama's so stubborn
But you don't remember Daddy leaving
Because he didn't love her
Oooh, oh-oh oooh
{Chorus}
Mama said not to curse
Watch out for four letter words
Yeah, they'll only hurt you in the end
Don't act like you don't know
You'll get a mouth full of soap
And she just can't say it enough
Don't you dare go saying you're in l-o-v-e, love
