Cant Have Your Cake Lyrics - Motley Crue

When I was a young boy my mama would say 

Son, you ain't always gonna get your way 

Times will be good, times will be bad 

You ain't always gonna get a winning hand 

Son, she always said, you gotta stand tall 

Even when it looks like you'll take a fall 

Life is short and sometimes sweet 

Get out of the kitchen if you can't take the heat 

Everything she said was true 

My mama never was a fool 

Gotta live your life by the golden rule

I guess it's true what they say 

Really true what they say 

I guess what mama said was true 

Can't have your cake and eat it too, babe 

I never doubted any word my mutha said 

With all the sinnin' runnin' 'round my head 

Everything she said was true 

My mama never was a fool 

Gotta live your life by the golden rule 

Everything she said was true 

My mama never was a fool 

Gotta live your life by the golden rule

Can't have your cake and eat it too, babe
