Oh, mama don't allow no parkin' in the car Oh, mama don't allow no parkin' in the backseat of the car But if I listened to mama I wouldn't be in this mess Like a TV show I saw a long time ago Mama knows best! I went to see my baby I had daddу's car for the night We were going to the drivеn' I thought it could be all right One thing led to another And sure did blow my mind To be over my left shoulder And see that flash light shine I said: "look here cop, you ain't treatin' us right!" He said: "shut up kid and sit down! You know you both are in trouble up to your ears, and I'm... I'm gonna have to call your parents down" Ah! the girl was mad! That's so was а dad! And my social life was dead And when I got grounded for a month I remember what my mama said: "You worse than your father" Mama don't allow no parkin' in the car Mama don't allow no parkin' in the backseat of the car If I listened to mama I wouldn't be in this mess 'Cos like a TV show I saw a long time ago Mama knows best! Mama knows best! Mama knows best! Mama! Mama knows best!
