You Nearly Lose Your Mind

(C)Now if you love your momma
And try to treat her right
But she keeps on fussing at you  (C7)Everyday and night
 
Cause she's gonna (F)trifle on ya'    
They (C)do it every time
And when your (G7)baby starts a stepping
Lord you nearly lose your (C)mind
 
Now if your momma's mean

Lock her up at home lord (C7)But hang on to that key

Cause she's gonna (F)trifle on ya'    
They (C)do it every time
And when your (G7)baby starts a stepping
Lord you nearly lose your (C)mind
 
But if you momma's good
I'll tell you what to do
Give her lots of loving (C7)But watch her closely too

Cause she's gonna (F)trifle on ya'    
They (C)do it every time
And when your (G7)baby starts a stepping
Lord you nearly lose your (C)mind
 
When you come to your momma
An' find your clothes ain't clean
You can bet your slipping  (C7)If you know just what I mean

Cause she's gonna (F)trifle on ya'    
They (C)do it every time
And when your (G7)baby starts a stepping

They (C)do it every time
And when your (G7)baby starts a stepping
Lord you nearly lose your (C)mind
 
Now I've been a lot of places
There's nothing I ain't done
But wen it comes to women(C7)I don't trust a one

Cause she's gonna (F)trifle on ya'    
They (C)do it every time
And when your (G7)baby starts a stepping
