- Mama Told Me Not To Come Lyrics / with translationsWant some whiskey in your water?
Sugar in your tea?
What's all these crazy questions they're askin me?
This is the craziest party that could ever be
Don't turn on the lights cause I don't wanna see
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That aint the way to have fun, no
Open up the window, let some air into this room
I think I'm almost chokin from the smell of stale
perfume
And that cigarette you're smokin bout scare me half to
death
Open up the window, sucker, let me catch my breath
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, son
The radio is blastin, someones knockin at the door
I'm lookin at my girlfriend - she's passed out on the
floor
I seen so many things I aint never seen before
Don't know what it is - I don't wanna see no more
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
She said, That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, son
Sugar in your tea?
What's all these crazy questions they're askin me?
This is the craziest party that could ever be
Don't turn on the lights cause I don't wanna see
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That aint the way to have fun, no
Open up the window, let some air into this room
I think I'm almost chokin from the smell of stale
perfume
And that cigarette you're smokin bout scare me half to
death
Open up the window, sucker, let me catch my breath
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, son
I'm lookin at my girlfriend - she's passed out on the
floor
I seen so many things I aint never seen before
Don't know what it is - I don't wanna see no more
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
She said, That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, no
That aint the way to have fun, son
That aint the way to have fun, no
