DJ Pooh - Mama Don't Take No Mess lyrics

"There are a few things I wanna explain to you.. And I'll try to define, to the best of my ability" "Mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "I'ma tell you one more thing; And won't tell y'all nothin else" "Mama.." [Yo-Yo] Growin up was crazy, in my days we got our a** kicked Mama didn't play no ? cause talkin back is foul play She had her own way of gettin across, which was a belt of steel She'd tell us from the work we could all but kneel Gettin nasty in front of guests was the way she'd like to do it She'll say straighten your sh** up, or you can stop em from comin And yo guys knew what time it was, even they was checked I got a down a** mama ("that's right") mama don't take no mess Now sh** got hectic, cause mama was tipped She'll tell you in a minute don't let your mouth get yo' a** whipped Mama did it all by herself, King and Queen of this house Yellin, "I want my Daddy" would get your a** thrown out Now when it came to partyin, moms got wild Don't nuttin get old but clothes, and they come back as styles ("that's right.. that's right") Yo, I got a down a** mama "Mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Can you dig it?" [Yo-Yo] Beings it was all girls, sh** was always missing From panties to makeup, if it was gone then she was b**hin She wants to know, "Who's been in the house?" I said no company Checkin her dresser sayin, "What happened to my money?" If it was on then it was on, cause money don't walk Somebody better talk, find the stuff she done lost I got my bu*t whooped for everything I did wrong And it was ON, cause n***as kept playin on my phone Don't let moms go to a conference and the teacher confess Man I'm tell you, mama don't take no mess Why watch me go down, fight to keep it goin But really not knowin cause the truth is what they're showin You don't have a friend, "friends come and go" is what she'll say "Never tell your deepest secret, you'll get hurt that way Love is a game, and it's okay if you play But they're dogs dressed as men, tryin to be your friend And baby watch out, don't take a step unless you know which way you're goin Times are gettin lonely but I'll be a honey I'll never leave ya, believe that love is in the air No matter what you done, moms'll be there" I got a down a** mama "Mama don't take no mess!" "Because I'm aware that you have to use what you have to get what you want. This is the reason I'm asking you to tighten up your sh**. Be proud of your black body and use it. That's your natural gift, so girls use it. But you got to get yo' sh** together!" "Mama don't take no mess!" "I'm beggin you please do like I told you" [Yo-Yo] Moms, didn't play the okey-doke, oke can get choked, huh f** around and get yo' neck broke Tellin your friends, "Hold up, wait man, moms'll let me go" Walk in the house and mom straight say NO! The type of moms to whup you in the store if she hasta Just to let you know, you're the child, she's the master Livin it to the fullest, playin 40 like she's 20 y'know Some old tricks from a young pro Brought up in a church house, and every Sunday was a must When moms couldn't make it, we rode the church bus Don't say you couldn't fade it, cause that was plannin yo' week No church, no runnin the streets G! ("That's right") We didn't neglect our chores, that was number one For thirty on the dot, we was on the run She used to pull up at the dance, have the DJ to call us out After two o'clock, wasn't no hangin out Sometimes she waited in the batterram or stood at the front do' People used to ask what she came fo' Hell wasn't nuttin get close, moms was loc, no joke ("Right on!)" I got a down a** mama "Mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Mmmm, mmm, mmm" "Mama.. mama don't take no mess!" "Get them drive-by shooters out of my living room And off my couch. You know we expecting company!" "Is that it? I gotta go." "HELL NAW THAT AIN'T IT!"
