You've Got to See Mamma Ev'ry Night (Or You Can't See Mamma at All) Lyrics

You gotta see your mamma every night,
Or you can't see your mamma at all!
You've got to kiss your mamma, treat her right,
Or I won't be home when you call!

Now I don't like that kind o' man
That makes love on the installment plan!
You gotta see your mamma every night,
Or you won't see your mamma at all!

Monday night, you didn't show,
Tuesday night, you claimed no dough,
Wednesday night, that same old stall,
Thursday night, you didn't call.

Friday night, you dogged my path,
Saturday night, you took your bath,
Sunday night, you had a date,
And from the looks of everything it's clear that I don't rate!

Hey you, you better show tonight,
Or you won't see your mamma at all!
You better kiss me, you better hold me right,
Or I won't be home when you call!

Now I don't like that kind o' man
That operates on the installment plan.
You better see me, you better make things right,
Or you won't see your mamma at all!

Cut out all this stallin',
Cut in some callin',
Or you won't see your mamma at all!
