mother-in-law blues

i'm in love with you

baby

but your mother

she's got the mood

i'm in love with you

baby

but your mother

she got the mood

i just

i just can't help myself

lord

i got those mother-in-law blues

whenever i'd go for a ride in the country

she wants to ride along too

i had to trade and get a sports car

with bucket seats just for two

whenever i get a phone call

i bet your 5 against your 10

that she's on the extension line

just tryin' to listen in

whenever i try to watch television

and get me some peace of mind

i bet she's up to walk in my room

and twist to channel 9

a man's home is supposed to be his castle

where he is supposed to be the king

but as long as this woman is in my house

our love won't be a thing

i'm in love with you

baby

but your mother

lord

she's got the mood

i just

i just can't help myself

lord

i got those mother-in-law blues

oh yeah

lord don't you know

i got those

i got those mother-in-law blues
