The Man That Turned My Mama On ((In The Style of Tanya Tucker)) - Done Again
I wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
He must have been a heck of a man
Cause mama was a lady don't you know
Mama was no prude but she was proper
Never wore her dress too short
She didn't care if you did but she'd never taken a drink
Grandma Kate did the best
She could to see mama grew up right
So she'd be fittin' one day
For courtin' and to wear some gentleman's ring
I wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
People was always laughing
And sang a right sweet song
I wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
Must have been a heck of a man
Cause mama was a lady don't you know
I hear he came to town one day in a rusty old '49 Ford
Sellin' ladies shoes and assorted greeting cards
He was killer goodlookin' and easy
To like and turnin' all the ladies heads
But he saw mama first and
Lord knows how some of them travelin' men are
I wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
He was always laughing
And sang a right sweet song
Wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
He must been a heck of a man
'Cause mama was a lady don't you know
Mama seemed to forget the things
That Grandma Kate had always told her
She ran away one night with that travelin' man
Hey bought gas at Reba's truck stop
And drove to DeSoto Candy
But he brought her home
With a ring upon her hand
Mama told me how the fever
Took him when I was barely five
But I remember him pitchin'
Me up and catchin' me
And I love to sit and listen
To her tell me about my Daddy
She says he thought the sun
Surely rise and set in me
I wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
Must have been a heck of a man
'Cause mama was a lady don't you know
Wish I'd known the man a little better
That turned my mama on
Must have been a heck of a man
'Cause mama was a lady don't you know
