You're a grown woman, good at what you do
I'm happy as hell when I'm alone with you
As you stroke my body and soothe my brow
With everything that the law will allow
I pray, "Don't turn out like your mother"
You're a grown woman, good at what you do
I'm happy as hell when I'm alone with you
As you stroke my body and soothe my brow
With everything that the law will allow
I pray, "Don't turn out like your mother"
I'm a grown man, over 21, I've got an ugly face
But I have a lot of fun, so if spill a gla**
Or break a dish, I hear your voice and I make this wish
Please "Don't turn out like your mother"
Don't turn out, don't turn out
Don't turn out like your mother
I couldn't stand it and I'll be damned if
I'm gonna live with another
So many woman give you so much
Civilized ways and a gentle touch
A different perspective, that's as bright as a bu*ton
But then you wake up one morning and it all counts for nothing
'Cos she's turned into her mother
Don't turn out, don't turn out
Don't turn out like your mother
I couldn't stand it and I'll be damned if
I'm gonna live with another
It's not the way she looks, it's not the food she cooks
Her kind of indignation don't cause me trepidation
But to live with a woman like this would take a masochist
Or someone who could get and could stay permanently pissed
It's not the way she looks, it's not the food she cooks
Her kind of indignation don't cause me trepidation
But to live with a woman like this would take a masochist
Or someone who could get and could stay permanently pissed
You're a grown woman, good at what you do
I'm happy as hell when I'm alone with you
As you stroke my body and soothe my brow
With everything that the law will allow
I'm a grown man, over 21, I've got an ugly face
But I have a lot of fun, so if spill a gla**
Or break a dish don't get on to me
Like some haranguing witch
Don't turn out like your mother, don't turn out, don't turn out
Don't turn out like your mother
I couldn't stand it and I'll be damned if
I'm gonna live with another
It's not her looks or the way she cooks
That wakes me up in a cold sweat
It's just the knowledge that if it happened
I couldn't drink enough to forget
Don't turn out
(Etc)
Don't end up
(Etc)
