don't break my mama's heart
don't make my mama cry
when you break my mama's heart

you're also breaking mine

my mama is a sweet one

you think she's meek and mild
you push her around
you treat her like a child

but if you don't give her everything she needs
you're gonna have to answer to me


don't break my mama's heart
don't make my mama cry
when you break my mama's heart

you're also breaking mine

my mama's got a heart made of solid steel

when her teardrops fall
each one of them is real
she's strong as a mountain

she raised her children right
i don't want to see her crying--
when i get home tonight


i don't want to see her cry
i don't want to see her tears in her eyes

there's nothing i won't do
to keep my mama from feeling blue


don't break my mama's heart
don't make my mama cry
when you break my mama's heart

you're also breaking mine

don't break my mama's heart

don't make my mama cry
when you break my mama's heart
you're also breaking mine
