Well my mama don’t want no music played around here
Mama don’t want no music played around here
We don’t care what Mama don’t allow
We’re gonna play our music anyhow
Mama don’t want no music played around here
Mama don’t want no hands clappin’ ‘round here…
Mama don’t want no banjo pickin’ ‘round here…
Mama don’t want no elbow clappin’ ‘round here…
Mama don’t want no fiddle played around here…
Mama don’t want no lips clappin’ round here…
Mama don’t want no bass playin’ ‘round here
Drums
Mama don’t want no feet clappin’ ‘round here
Mama don’t want no guitar pickin’ ‘round here
Mama don’t want no music played around here
