Track byKay Starr, Dave Cavanaugh
You gotta see your mamma every night Or you can't see your mamma at all You've got to kiss your mamma, treat her right Or I won't be home when you call Now I don't like that kind o' man That makes love on the installment plan You gotta see your mamma every night Or you won't see your mamma at all Monday night, you didn't show Tuesday night, you claimed no dough Wednesday night, that same old stall Thursday night, you didn't call Friday night, you dogged my path Saturday night, you took your bath Sunday night, you had a date And from the looks of everything it's clear that I don't rate Hey you, you better show tonight Or you won't see your mamma at all You better kiss me, you better hold me right Or I won't be home when you call Now I don't like that kind o' man That operates on the installment plan You better see me, you better make things right Or you won't see your mamma at all Cut out all this stallin' Cut in some callin' Or you won't see your mamma at all
