Carrie Newcomer lyrics : "My Mamma Said It's True"

Words of wisdom, I recall,
my Mamma told me when I was small
There's moral to each story

There's one here if you listen closely

I'd fuss and fight and promise you

I would never be so uncool
But I'm surprised if I don't find
I sound like you a lot of the time


If you can't say nothin' nice don't say nothin' at all
Pride goes first before a fall

No one loves you like your mother
Someday you'll like your little brother


Don't run with that thing you'll poke out an eye
Don't wink at the boys when they go by
Never say never, thought I taught you better

Nice girls always wear a bra with a sweater

My Mamma said it's true

But I disagreed. Sometimes it sounds like you

Two wrongs don't make a right

Dangling earrings are for just at night
Anything worth doin' is worth doin' well
If you whistle in the dark no one can tell

Keep a penny in your pocket keep a dime in your shoe
Wear clean underwear in case something happen to you
You can catch more flies with honey

Marry for love and not for money

My Mamma said it's true

But I disagreed. Sometimes it sounds like you
Now it sounds like me


She said ?Bread crust can curl your hair
It's not polite to point or stare
If everyone else was jumping off a cliff too

You can be sure that I wouldn't let you
Don't wear white till after Easter day
I never spoke to your grandma that way

Get a real job; he wasn't worth your time
If you don't stop that then you'll go blind


My Mamma said it's true
