Lyrics:
Mama he treats your daughter mean
Mama he treats your daughter mean
Mama he treats your daughter mean
He’s the meanest man I’ve ever seen

Mama he treats me badly
Makes me love him madly
Mama he takes my money
Makes me call him honey

Mama he can’t be trusted
He makes me so disgusted
All of my friends they don’t understand
What’s the matter with this man

I tell you mama he treats your daughter mean
Mama he treats your daughter mean
Mama he treats your daughter mean
He’s the meanest man I’ve ever seen

Mama this man is lazy
Almost drives me crazy
Mama he makes me squeeze him
Still my squeezes don’t please him

Mama my heart is aching
I believe it’s breaking
I’ve stood all that I can stand
What’s the matter with this man?

I tell you Mama he treats your daughter mean
Mama he treats your daughter mean
Mama he treats your daughter mean
He’s the meanest man I’ve ever seen
