[Verse 1] Came home today, the sky was turning dark The birds they wouldn’t sing. dogs they wouldn’t bark Storm clouds were gathering, way up in the sky It was probably my fault, but I just did not know why [insert short instrumental ] Was it Too much time spent at the barroom again or maybe she’s just tired of putting up with all my friends maybe it’s because of the beer here on my breath or maybe she’s just trying to nag my ass to death [Chorus] But if Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy ain’t nobody happy around here. [Verse 2] My daddy said the secret to a long and happy life was learning how to deal with a crazy, angry wife he said you can be happy, son, or you can be right you just need to decide where you want to sleep tonight [Chorus] Because if Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy ain’t nobody happy around here. [Instrumental break] [Verse 3] I gave her a kiss and then I gave her a squeeze poured her some wine and got her off of her feet made reservations at a place that’s pretty nice Glad I had listened to my father's advice [Chorus] cause if Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy ain’t nobody happy around here. [Verse 4] My daddy said the secret to a long and happy life was learning how to deal with a crazy, angry wife he said you can be happy, son, or you can be right. Just decide where you want to sleep tonight [chorus] Cause if Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy, If Mama ain’t happy ain’t nobody happy around here [instrumental outro] [end]
