Well I heard mama late last night She was talkin' to my father Now it's time that boy was shippin' out, and I mean it Come hell or high water Smokes and spits and drinks and fights And his friends all look like trouble Oh, he sleeps all day and gone all night Where's that boy I used to cuddle Ten good years and then he must have gone insane You're the only hell your mama ever raised She tried to tell ya but you got to do things your own way Says you're a good boy And that you must be goin' through some phase You're the only hell your mama ever, your mama ever raised Susie sneaks out all the time She says it's only fair Now mama won't let me have no fun Sometimes I think she's Linda Blair Sixteen years of pristine tears then Susie changed her ways You're the only hell your mama ever raised She tried to tell ya but you got to do things your own way Susie was always coy Probably just goin' through some phase You're the only hell your mama ever, mama ever raised You're the only hell you're mama ever raised She tried to tell ya but you got to do things your own way Should know better That you must be goin' through some phase You're the only hell your mama ever, mama ever raised Mama ever raised Oh, yeah Oh mama, little boy may be leaving today I don't care what you say Mama I've got to get wings and fly away
