Mama ’n Them

(david lee murphy/michael woody)

Well theres a rusty ol tin roof overhead
Keeps out the rain at night
A lazy ol dog layin under the truck
And hes been known to bite
Theres a 12 gauge shotgun over the door
So darlin dont be surprised
If we end up starin down a double barrel
When we pull up the drive cause

Mama n them have always lived
Way back up in the hills
Nothins ever changed em
Lord nothin ever will
If they dont shoot us first theyll ask us in
And treat you just like long lost kin
Honey youre gonna fit right in
With mama n them

Better honk the horn just to let em know
They dont get much company
And they wont believe this big cadillac
Really belongs to me
If you aint sure yet just what to expect
From my side of the family
Well you better duck to know its us
I cant make no guarantees cause

Mama n them have always lived
Way back up in the hills
Nothins ever changed em
Lord nothin ever will
If they dont shoot us first theyll ask us in
And treat you just like long lost kin
Honey youre gonna fit right in
With mama n them
