MAMA'S LITTLE JEWEL
(Hank Mills - Kermit Barrett)
« © '65 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »

You're the meanest woman in this world and that takes centre plenty
You take my pay check off to town and don't bring home a penny
Your mama says that you're a queen and should be on a thrown
So we gonna pack up all your junk and sent mama's little jewel home
When I found you I thought I'd found a diamond in a rough
I diamonds what you should be cause I bought you enough
Today you give the dog a steak and then pitched me the bone
So we gonna pack up all your junk and sent mama's little jewel home

Some woman staggered through the door and woke me up at two
She handed me her ID card and by George it was you
At baseball game you drink the beer and then hand me the phone
So we gonna pack up all your junk and sent mama's little jewel home
Now Jessie Fell was a p*ssycat compared to the life to you
At least she didn't slip around and do the things you do
Webster says that a little jewel should belong to one alone
So we gonna pack up all your junk and sent mama's little jewel home
Yeah we gonna pack up all your junk and sent mama's little jewel home
