Oh, Momma's gonna buy me a coat
Yes, Momma's gonna buy me a coat
She ain't gonna give me no knitted hat
But I guess she's gonna buy me a coat
So I'm-a gonna get her a book

Oh, yes, Momma took me aside
She say she don't believe in my story none
But If so, she would be takin my side

Yes I'ma gonna find a few friends
They gonna give me all the help I need
To maybe gain some common sense
But I guess that it really depends
