The Man That Turned My Mama On - Ed Bruce[00:00:00]
I wish I'd known the man[00:00:12]
A little better that turned my mama on[00:00:14]
He must have been a heck of a man 'cause[00:00:17]
Mama was a lady don't you know[00:00:19]
Mama was no prude but she was proper[00:00:23]
Never wore her dress too short[00:00:25]
She didn't care if you did[00:00:28]
But she'd of never taken a drink[00:00:29]
Grandma kate did the best[00:00:33]
She could to see mama grew up right[00:00:35]
So she'd be fittin' one day for courtin[00:00:38]
And to wear some gentleman's ring[00:00:40]
I wish I'd known the man a little[00:00:43]
Better that turned my mama on[00:00:45]
He was always laughin' and sang a right sweet song[00:00:48]
Wish I'd known the man a little[00:00:53]
Better that turned my mama on[00:00:55]
He must have been a heck[00:00:58]
Of a man 'cause mama was a lady[00:00:59]
Don't you know[00:01:01]
I hear he came to town one day in a rusty old '49 ford[00:01:03]
Sellin' ladies shoes and assorted greeting cards[00:01:08]
He was killin' good lookin[00:01:13]
And easy to like and turnin' all the ladies heads[00:01:15]
But he saw mama first and you[00:01:18]
Her story by a have some dry little on[00:01:20]
I wish I'd known the man[00:01:23]
A little better that turned my mama on[00:01:25]
He was always laughin' and sang a right sweet song[00:01:28]
I wish I'd known the man[00:01:34]
A little better that turned my mama on[00:01:35]
He must have been a heck[00:01:38]
Of a man 'cause mama was a lady don't you know[00:01:40]
Mama seemed to forget the things[00:01:44]
That grandma kate had always told her[00:01:46]
She ran away one night with the travelin' man[00:01:49]
They bought gas at rita's truck stop[00:01:54]
And drove to desoto county[00:01:56]
But he brought her home with a ring upon her hand[00:01:59]
Mama's told me how the fever took him when I was barely five[00:02:05]
But I remember him pitchin' me up and catchin' me[00:02:10]
And I love to sit and listen to her tell me about my daddy[00:02:15]
She says he thought the sun must surely rise and set in me[00:02:20]
I wish I'd known the man[00:02:25]
A little better that turned my mama on[00:02:27]
He was always laughin' and sang a right sweet song[00:02:30]
I wish I'd known the man[00:02:35]
A little better that turned my mama on[00:02:37]
He must have been a heck[00:02:40]
Of a man 'cause mama was a lady don't you know[00:02:41]
I wish I'd known the man[00:02:45]
A little better that turned my mama on[00:02:47]
He must have been a heck[00:02:50]
Of a man 'cause mama was a lady don't you know[00:02:51]
