Hold tight for the hell that hath no fury
Sometimes we fall in love, it don't make no sense at all
Last night, you made the moves that hung the jury
"It's alright, I'll seize the day", you hear me call

Oh, Mother did say there'll be wicked days, for worse or for better
Oh, saddle below, take me home and give me shelter
Oh, Mother did say
Oh, Mother did say

I'm upright as it takes two to make the tango
The starlight wraps the evening in a spell that ends in your eyes
They guard the lips I wanna wrangle
And oh my, it hits me hard, you silky cannonball

Oh, Mother did say there'll be wicked days, for worse or for better
Oh, saddle below, take me home and give me shelter
Oh, Mother did say

It's midnight, and it's your touch I still remember
I'm tongue-tied, but with the trouble comes the pleasure
Like daylight, the way you move, it haunts the corridors of my mind
To you, I do surrender

Oh, Mother did say there'll be wicked days, for worse or for better
Oh, saddle below, take me home and give me shelter
In my heart lies the devil you know, in old rodeos, forbidden letters
Oh, Mother did say don't lose your way and never forget her
Oh, Mother did say
Oh, Mother did say
