Tanya Tucker - The Man That Turned My Mama On lyrics
I wish I'd known the man a little better that turned my mama on he must have been a heck of a man 'cause mama was a lady don't you know Mama was no prude but she was proper never wore her dress to short she didn't care if he did but she'd of never taken a drink Grandma Kate did the best she could To see mama grew up right so she'd be fittin one day for court and to wear some gentleman's ring Chorus: I wish I'd known the man a little better that turned my mama on he was always laughing and singing the right sweet song I wish I'd known the man a little better the turned my mama on He must have been a heck of a man 'Cause mama was a lady don't you know I hear he came to town one day in a rusty old '49 Ford selling lady's shoes and assorted greeting cards he was killing good looking and easy to like and turning all the ladies' heads but he saw mama first and the Lord knows how some of them travelin men are Chorus Mama seemed to forget the things that Grandma Kate had always told her she ran away one night with a traveling man they bought gas at Rita's truck stop and drove to Dasota County but he brought her home with a ring upon her hand mama's told me how the fever took him when I was barely 5 but I remember him pitchin me up and catching me and I love to sit and listen to her tell me about my daddy she said he thought the sun would surely rise and set in me Chorus |
