Well, that's alright, mama, that's alright for you
That's alright mama, just anyway you do
Well, that's alright, that's alright
That's alright now mama, anyway you do
Mama she done told me, papa done told me too
"Son, that gal you're foolin' with, she ain't
No good for you" but that's alright, that's alright
That's alright now mama, anyway you do
I'm leaving town, baby, I'm leaving town for sure
Well, then you won't be bothered with me hanging
'Round your door, well, that's alright, that's alright
That's alright now mama, anyway you do
