No Man's Mama Songtext
von Carolina Chocolate Drops

You may wonder
What′s the reason
For this great big smile;
Say I haven't
Been so happy
For the longest while;
Got a big load off my mind;
Here′s the paper,
Sealed and signed
And the judge was nice and kind
All through the trial;
This ends the five year war.
I am myself once more;
I can go where I please;
I can come when I please;
I can flit, fly, and flutter
Like the birds in the trees
Because I'm no man's mama now.
I can do what I like;
I can say what I like;


I′m a gal who is on the matrimonial strike
Because I′m no man's mama now.
I′m screaming now I know how
A fellow feels gettin' out of jail.
I′ve got twin beds
And I take pleasure in announcing
One's for sale.
Am I making it plain?
I will never again
Drag around another ball and chain.
Because I′m no man's mama now.
I can smile.
I can wink.
I can go take a drink,
And I don't have to worry what my hubby will think.
Beacause I′m no man′s mama now.
Are you gettin' it yet?
I can spend what I choose.
I can play and sing the blues,
And there′s nobody messing with my ones and my twos.
Because I'm no man′s mama now.
I tell ya
There was a time
I used to think that men were grand.
No more
I've gone and labeled my apartment
No man′s land.
I got rid of my cat
Because the cat's name was Pat.
Don't even have a mailbox
In my flat.
Because I′m no man′s mama now.
Am I makin' it plain?
I will never again
Drag around another ball and chain.
Because I′m no man's mama now.
