[Intro]
Yeah!
[Verse]
Ooh let me tell you now
Mama's in love, Papa's in love
It's such a shame they don't love each other, oh no
Papa's in a jam, Mama's throwin' pans
The game's up, it's time to run for cover
[Chorus]
Everybody's cryin' but they can't stop hopin'
Everybody's lookin' for the door that's open
Mama's makin heat to keep the old fire smokin'
Papa's hangin' on to his old love token
[Bridge]
You got love but you ain't got style
You want your freedom but in a while
You're lost children but you know for sure
You gotta find out who your love is for
[Guitar Solo]
[Instrumental Break]
Oh, baby life ain't what it used to be
You're tellin' me? Not since you've been hangin' around here
Hey
Mama what you screamin' for, actin' like a demon for?
And hey mama, quit wavin' them hands in the air (what?)
Don't talk to me that way!
Well, I don't see no reason to raise your voice to me
You put fat in the fire, you got meat for brains
Well, you don't give me comfort and a man's gotta get it somewhere
Ooh, that's a shame
Yeah, well
Mama's hangin' on to every word that's spoken
But Papa's hangin' on to his old love token
That's what it is
Here it comes, babe!
[Guitar Solo]
Oh I don't wanna leave you Mama
Said I don't wanna leave you Papa
[Middle Eight]
Long haired women gonna turn you to stone
You can't beat 'em, cause you need 'em
You gotta live, you gotta love
You're love token's gotta fit like a glove
[Guitar Solo]
Listen to the story 'bout the dream that's broken
You gotta keep a hold of your old love token
[Outro]
Oh I don't wanna leave you Mama (mama mama mama mama mama)
Oh I don't wanna leave you Papa (papa papa papa papa papa)
Oh I don't wanna leave
No I don't wanna leave
No I don't wanna leave
No I don't wanna leave you alone
But I'm gonna have to, babe
Yeah!
