| Lyrics: | Mama sent me to the spring, she told me not to stay
I fell in love with a pretty little girl,
and could not get away
Chawing chewing gum, chewing chawing gum
Chawing chewing gum,
chewing chawing gum
First she give me peaches, next she give me pears
Next she give me
fifty cents, kissed me on the stairs
Mommy don't 'low me to whistle, poppy don't 'low me to
sing
They don't 'low me to marry, I'll marry just the same
I wouldn't have a lawyer,
I'll tell you the reason why
Every time he opens his mouth he tells a great big lie
I
wouldn't have a doctor, I'll tell you the reason why
He rides all over the country and makes the
people die
I wouldn't have a farmer, I'll tell you the reason why
Because he has so
plenty to eat, 'specially pumpkin pie
I took my girl to church last night How do you reckon
she done?
She walked right up in the preacher's face and chewed her chewing gum |
