Mama Told Me Not To Come

Tom Jones

Want 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

She said "That ain't the way to have fun, son"

"That ain't the way to have fun, son"



Open up the window, let some air into this room

I think momma's chocking from the smell of stale perfume

And the cigarette you're smoking about to scare me half to death

Open up the window, let me catch my breath



Some radio is blastin'

someone's knockin' at the door

I'm lookin' at my girlfriend

She just passed out on the floor

I've seen so many things

I ain't 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 (Mama told me)

She said "That ain't the way to have fun, no" (no, no)

"That ain't the way to have fun, son"



Mama told me, mama told me

Mana told me, mama told me

Mama told me not to come (Mama told me not to come)

"That ain't the way to have fun, son"

"That ain't the way to have fun, son"

"That ain't the way to have fun, no, son"

"That ain't the way to have fun, son" (Mama told me)



Mama told me, mama told me

Mama told me, mama told me

Mama told me not to come (Mama told me not to come)

"That ain't the way to have fun, son"

"That ain't the way to have fun, son"

"That ain't the way to have fun" (oh no, no)...
