The Only Mama That'll Walk The Line

(album: Hand Sown... Home Grown - 1969)

Well everybody knows you been stepping on my toes
And I'm getting pretty tired of it
I'm gonna hit you on the head with a pan of cornbread
If you had any sense you'd quit

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl
I said you were the only man in this whole world
So now you'd better do some thinking then you'll find
You got the only mama that'll walk the line

Well I'm a-working every day all you wanna do is play
I'm getting tired of staying home all night
Well I'm a-coming unglued from your funny little moods
Now honey baby that ain't right

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl
I said you were the only man in this whole world
So now you'd better do some thinking then you'll find
You got the only mama that'll walk the line

Well I'm a-packing up my clothes
Nearly everybody knows that you're still just a-putting me on
And when I start a-walking gonna hear you start a-squawking
And a-begging me to come back home

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl
I said you were the only man in this whole world
So now you'd better do some thinking then you'll find
You got the only mama that'll walk the line
You got the only mama that'll walk the line
You got the only mama that'll walk the line
