《When your Good To Mama》歌词

[00:00:23] Ask any of the chickies in my pen

[00:00:28] They'll tell you I'm the biggest mother hen

[00:00:30] I love 'em all and all of them love me

[00:00:38] Because the system works

[00:00:39] The system called reciprocity...

[00:00:55] Got a little motto

[00:00:56] Always sees me through

[00:01:00] When you're good to Mama

[00:01:03] Mama's good to you.

[00:01:10] There's a lot of favors

[00:01:13] I'm prepared to do

[00:01:15] You do one for Mama

[00:01:18] She'll do one for you.

[00:01:25] They say that life is tit for tat

[00:01:28] And that's the way I live

[00:01:31] So, I deserve a lot of tat

[00:01:34] For what I've got to give

[00:01:36] Don't you know that this hand

[00:01:39] Washes that one too

[00:01:42] When you're good to Mama

[00:01:45] Mama's good to you!

[00:01:59] If you want my gravy

[00:02:01] Pepper my ragout

[00:02:04] Spice it up for Mama

[00:02:07] She'll get hot for you

[00:02:14] When they pass that basket

[00:02:17] Folk contribute too

[00:02:19] You out in for Mama

[00:02:22] She'll put out for you

[00:02:29] The folks atop the ladder

[00:02:32] Are the ones the world adores

[00:02:35] So boost me up my ladder, Kid

[00:02:37] And I'll boost you up yours

[00:02:40] Let's all stroke together

[00:02:43] Like the Princeton crew

[00:02:46] When you're strokin' Mama

[00:02:49] Mama's strokin' you

[00:02:53] So what's the one conclusion

[00:02:54] I can bring this number to?

[00:02:58] When you're good to Mama

[00:03:04] Mama's good to you
