Oh stepmama, what do make you so mean
Mmm stepmama, what do make you so mean
Why, you're the meanest spiteful woman
This baby girl has ever seen
Mmm mmm stepmama, interceptin' U.S. mail
Caught you stepmama, interceptin' U.S. mail
And all the time you're rockin' your own boychild
You're singin' twilight on the trail, happy trails
Mmm hmm, whup on out that leather strap
Mean stepmama, polish up that leather strap
And beat your poor stepchild senseless
Before you take your beauty nap
Mmm stepmama, the last laugh's gonna be on you
Oh, oh stepmama, the last laugh's gonna be on you
'Cause I seen, I seen the Polaroid picture
Wrote a song called Mean Stepmama Blues
