No Man's Mamma

You may wonder what's the reason

For this great big smile;

Say, I haven't been so happy

In the longest while!

Got a big load off my mind,

Here's the papers, sealed and signed;

And the judge was nice and kind,

All through the trial.

This ends the five-year war,

I'm sweet Miss Waters once more!

I can come when I please, I can go when I please,

I can flit, fly and flutter like the birds in the trees,

Because I'm no man's mamma now!

Hey, hey!

I can say what I like, I can do what I like,

I'm a gal who is on a matrimonial strike;

Which means, I'm no man's mamma now!

I'm screamin', "There, I know how

A fella feels gettin' out of jail,"

I've got twin beds,

But I take pleasure in announcin' one's for sale!

Am I makin' it plain? I will never again

Drag around another ball and chain!

I'm through,

Because, I'm no man's mamma now!

I can smile, I can wink, I can go take a drink,

And I don't have to worry what my hubby will think!

Because, I'm no man's mamma now!

Get it fixed!

I can spend if I choose, I can play and sing the blues,

There's nobody messing with my ones and my twos,

Because, I'm no man's mamma now!

You know that there was a time

I used to think that men were grand,

But no more for mine,

I've gone and labeled my apartment

"No Man's Land!"

I got rid of my cat, 'cause my cat's name was Pat,

Won't even have a mailbox in my flat!

Because, I'm no man's mamma now!
