Why don't we let Mama sleep in
Why don't we let Mama sleep in
It just might improve her dis-po-si-tion
So why don't we let Mama sleep in
She's got a tough life, bein' my wife
Cookin' and cleanin' all day
And when the lights go down at night
And she gets tired of fight-in'
She dreams all her troubles away, So
Why don't we let Mama sleep in
Why don't we let Mama sleep in
It just might improve her dis-po-si-tion
So why don't we let Mama sleep in
She's been known to throw a fit
When she's chasin' down the kids
Out wreakin' havoc in the yard
And when she flops down in her easy chair
You'd think she just don't care
But she's doin' her best, she's tryin' real hard, So
Why don't we let Mama sleep in
Why don't we let Mama sleep in
It just might improve her dis-po-si-tion
So why don't we let Mama
Why don't we let Mama
Why don't we let Mama sleep in
