Papa Loved Mama 歌詞
Papa Loved Mama - The Hit Crew
Papa drove a truck nearly all his life
You know it drove mama crazy
Being a trucker's wife
The part she couldn't handle
Was the being alone
I guess she needed more to hold
Than just a telephone
Papa called Mama each and every night
Just to ask her how she was and
If us kids were alright
Mama would wait for that call to come in
When Daddy'd hang up she was gone again
Mama was a looker
Lord how she shined
Papa was a good'n
But the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama
Mama loved men
Mama's in the graveyard
Papa's in the pen
Well it was bound to happen
And one night it did
Papa came home and it was just us kids
He had a dozen roses and a bottle of wine
If he was lookin' to surprise us
He was doin' fine
I heard him cry for Mama up
And own the hall
Then I heard a bottle break against
The bedroom wall
That old diesel engine made an eerie sound
When Papa fired it up and headed into town
Well the picture in the paper showed
The scene real well
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
He never hit the brakes and
He was shifting gears
Mama was a looker
Lord how she shined
Papa was a good'n
But the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama
Mama loved men
Mama's in the graveyard
Papa's in the pen
