Mama`s Got A Girlfriend — текст песни (Ben Harper)

Papa, he left home today and said he ain`t comin` back again.
Said he ain`t gonna be nobody`s second best, just cause mama`s
got a special kind of friend.
Papa, he left home today, said he ain`t comin` back no more.
Said he ain`t gonna take no damn back seat.
And how could mama do him so low.

But mama`s got a girlfriend now, boy!
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.
Mama`s got a girlfriend.
Mama`s got a true friend.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.

You see Mama don`t watch your damn football.
And your beer drinkin` just won`t do.
You`re just stayin` out late.
And you`re preachin` the hate.
And you never have been true.
You see, Mama, she want her somebody who will let her be herself.
So she`s leavin` you and your stinky damn ways, cause she`s found
somebody else.

And Mama`s got a girlfriend now boy.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.
Mama`s got a girlfriend.
Mama`s found a true friend.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.

Papa he left home today.
He was wavin` his hands and cryin`.
You could tell by the sound and the tone in his voice that his
heart was slowly dyin`.
But mama said: Boy if I ever catch you `round here again, you
ain`t never gonna have nobody else not a woman or a man.

Yeah! Mama`s got a girlfriend now boy.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.
Mama`s got a girlfriend.
Mama`s found a true friend.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now, boy!
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.
Mama`s got a girlfriend.
Mama`s found a true friend.
Mama`s got a girlfriend now.
