   Is that my mother on the phone?

   Won't she leave me alone

   Well every girl that I go out with
   Becomes my mother in the end
   Every girl I go out with
   Becomes my mother in the end

   But I don't need her as a friend
   When every girl I go out with
   Becomes my mother in the end
   Oh, oh, mother
   Oh mother dear please listen
   And don't devour me
   Oh mother dear please listen
   Don't devour me
   Oh women please have mercy
   Let this poor boy be
   Oh mother dear please listen
   And don't devour me
   Oh mother
