Mama Told Me Not To Come Lyrics By Wilson Pickett

    want some whiskey in your water
    sugar in your tea
    what’s all these crazy questions they’re askin me
    this is the craziest party that could ever be
    don’t turn on the lights cause i don’t wanna see

    mama told me not to come
    mama told me not to come
    that ain’t the way to have fun no

    open up the window let some air into this room
    i think i’m almost chokin from the smell of stale perfume
    and that cigarette you’re smokin bout scare me half to death
    open up the window sucker let me catch my breath

    mama told me not to come
    mama told me not to come
    that ain’t the way to have fun son
    that ain’t the way to have fun son

    the radio is blastin someones knockin at the door
    i’m lookin at my girlfriend she’s passed out on the floor
    i seen so many things i ain’t never seen before
    don’t know what it is i don’t wanna see no more

    mama told me not to come
    mama told me not to come
    she said that ain’t the way to have fun son
    that ain’t the way to have fun no

    that ain’t the way to have fun no
    that ain’t the way to have fun son
    that ain’t the way to have fun no
    that ain’t the way to have fun son

    that ain’t the way to have fun no
    that ain’t the way to have fun son
    that ain’t the way to have fun no
    that ain’t the way to have fun son
