Well if you love your mama and you treat her right
But she keeps a fussin' at you every day and night
She's triflin' on ye they'll do it every time
And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind

But if your mama's good I'll tell you what to do
Give her lots of lovin' and what she wants to do
She'll trifle on ye they'll do it every time
And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind

[ guitar ]

Now I've been lots of places not much I ain't done

But when it comes to women I just don't trust a one

Because they'll trifle on ye they'll do it every time

And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind

You come home to your mama find your clothes ain't clean

You can bet you're slippin' if you know just what I mean

She's triflin' on ye they'll do it every time

And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind
