Allen Toussaint - Mother in Law lyrics

Mother-in-law (mother-in law), mother-in-law (mother-in-law) The worst person I know, mother-in-law, mother-in-law She worries me so, mother-in-law, mother-in-law If she leaves us alone, we would have a happy home Sent from down below (Mother-in-law) mother-in-law, (mother-in-law), mother-in-law Sin should be her name, mother-in-law, mother-in-law To me, they're about the same, mother-in-law, mother-in-law Every time I open my mouth, she steps in, tries to put me out How could she stoop so low? (Mother-in-law), mother-in-law, (mother-in-law), mother-in-law I come home with my pay, mother-in-law, mother-in-law She asks me what I make, mother-in-law, mother-in-law She thinks her advice is a contribution But if she will leave that will be a solution And don't come back no more (Mother-in-law), mother-in-law, (mother-in-law), mother-in-law Mother in law, mother in law, oh
