[Intro]
E
[Chorus]
E If only I had listened to Mamma A She told me this would happen to me sooner or later E If only I had listened to Mamma B A E B A E Ev'rything would be alright, ev'rything would be alright
[Verse 1]
E She said you better wear your rubbers or you're gonna catch your death E Keep your eye on what you're eatin' and do somethin' 'bout your breath E Treat a lady like a woman, treat a woman like a man A B But I was only seven and I didn't understand
[Chorus]
E If only I had listened to Mamma A She told me this would happen to me sooner or later E If only I had listened to Mamma B A E B A E Ev'rything would be alright, ev'rything would be alright
[Verse 2]
E She said you're runnin' with a crowd and it's gonna turn you bad E Till you end up pickin' pockets on the corner like your dad E I told her she was crazy I was smarter than the fuzz A B But thirty days in prison showed how right my Mamma was
[Chorus]
E If only I had listened to Mamma A She told me this would happen to me sooner or later E If only I had listened to Mamma B A E B A E Ev'rything would be alright, ev'rything would be alright
[Verse 3]
E She said you better learn a trade never make it on your looks E Keep your job near a college you can swipe some new books E But I didn't pay attention no I didn't take heed A B Now they're holding up a contract, asking me to read
[Chorus]
E If only I had listened to Mamma A She told me this would happen to me sooner or later E If only I had listened to Mamma B A E B A E Ev'rything would be alright, ev'rything would be alright
