If You Want A Mother Lyrics - One Of The Boys - Gretchen Wilson

You want me to bring you home the bacon 

Fry it up and serve it to you too 

When I don't you act so godforsaken 

Like somehow I've been mistreating you 

I know that's the way your mama did it 

She waited on you dang near all your life 

It took awhile but now I finally get it 

You were never looking for a wife 

[Chorus:] 

If you want a mother I can be one 

That ain't all that difficult for me 

We can do it your way from now on son 

And I'll show you what a mother I can be 

Remember Tuesday night when you're out bowling 

You better have your butt back home by 9 

Otherwise you're grounded for the weekend 

And that brand new Silverado will be mine 

In the evening when you're feeling sleepy 

Well I'll tuck you in and pat you on your head 

And I'll be right down the hall if you should need me 

Big boys have to sleep in their own bed 

[Chorus x2] 

You can go on back to your mother's apron strand 

Your mom can be a mother just like me
