Mama's Got A Girlfriend Lyrics - Ben Harper

Papa he left home today 

Said he ain't comin' back again 

Said he ain't gonna be nobody's second best 

Just couse mama's got a special kind of friend 

Papa he left home today 

Said he ain't comin' back no more 

Said he ain't gonna take no damn back seat 

And how could mama do him so low 

But mama's got a girlfriend now boy 

Mama's got a girlfriend now 

Mama's got a girlfriend 

Mama's got a true friend 

Mama's got a girlfriend now

You see mama don't watch your damn football 

And your beer drinkin' just won't do 

You're just stayin' out late 

And you're preachin' the hate 

And you never have been true 

You see mama she want her somebody 

Who will let her be herself 

So she's leavin' you 

And your stinky damn ways 

Cause she's found somebody else 

And mama's got a girlfriend now boy 

Mama's got a girlfriend now 

Mama's got a girlfriend 

Mama's found a true friend 

Mama's got a girlfriend now

Papa he left home today 

He was wavin' his hands and cryin' 

You could tell by the sound 

And the tone in his voice 

That his heart was slowly dyin' 

But mama said "boy if i ever 

Catch you 'round here again 

You ain't never gonna have nobody else 

Not a woman or a man" 

And mama's got a girlfriend now boy 

Mama's got a girlfriend now 

Mama's got a girlfriend 

Mama found a true friend 

Mama's got a girlfriend now 

Mama's got a girlfriend now boy 

Mama's got a girlfriend now 

Mama's got a girlfriend 

Mama's found a true friend 

Mama's got a girlfriend now
