Well if you love your mama and you treat her right

But she keeps a fussin' at you every day and night

She's triflin' on ye they'll do it every time

And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind

But if your mama's good I'll tell you what to do

Give her lots of lovin' and what she wants to do

She'll trifle on ye they'll do it every time

And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind

[ guitar ]

Now I've been lots of places not much I ain't done

But when it comes to women I just don't trust a one

Because they'll trifle on ye they'll do it every time

And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind

You come home to your mama find your clothes ain't clean

You can bet you're slippin' if you know just what I mean

She's triflin' on ye they'll do it every time

And when your baby starts to steppin' Lord you nearly lose your mind
