Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section - Momma lyrics

I was the baby brother I was the quiet other And I remember mother so well I was the little stranger I never was in danger I could 'a had a manger, pray tell Oh, how she could control me When I was bad she'd scold me Sometimes she wouldn't hold me And I'd cry But momma she never told me a lie Momma she never told me a lie I used to stay out evenings Stay out too late some evenings And momma would be there seething Back home Momma, she sat and waited Sat in the hall and waited Now I know why she hated That phone And when I'd come in she'd grab me Right by the arm she'd grab me Lord, when she was finished with me I'd cry, oh, I'd cry But momma she never told me a lie Momma she never told me a lie Momma she could control me And when I was bad she'd scold me Sometimes she wouldn't hold me And I'd cry Momma she never told me a lie Momma she never promised me the sky Momma she never told me a lie
