Leon Redbone You Nearly Lose Your Mind
Now if you love your Momma
And you treat her right
But she keeps on fussin' at you
Every day and night
Then she's gonna trifle on ya
They'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin', Lord
You nearly lose your mind
What do you think Willie?
Now if your Momma's mean
Take a tip from me
Lock her up at home Lord
But hang on to that key
Because she's gonna trifle on ya
They'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin', Lord
You nearly lose your mind
Rave on brother, rave on
But if you Momma's good
I'll tell yah what to do
Give her lots of lovin' Lord
But watch her closely too
Because she's gonna trifle on ya
They'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin', Lord
You nearly lose your mind
Ah pick them blues out Jimmie
Now you come home to your Momma
Find your clothes ain't clean
You can bet you're slippin'
If you get just what I mean
Because she's been triflin' on ya
They'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin', Lord
You nearly lose your mind
Now Waylon, son it's all yours
Now you may have a Momma
Who says that she is true
But wait till you get down and out
And really need her to
Then she's gonna trifle on ya
They'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin', Lord
You nearly lose your mind
Tell the truth son, tell the truth
Now I've been a lot of places
There's not much I ain't done
But when it comes to women, Lord
I just don't trust a one
Because they triflin' on ya
They'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin', Lord
You nearly lose your mind
It nearly drives you crazy
