Merle Haggard
You Nearly Lose Your Mind
If you love your mama and you treat her right
And she keeps on fussin' at you every day and night
She's gonna trifle on ya, she'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin'
Lord, you'll nearly lose your mind
If your mama's mean, take a tip from me
Lock her in the closet and hang on to that key
She's gonna trifle on ya, they'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin'
Lord, you'll nearly lose your mind
But if your mama's good, I'll tell you what to do
Give her lots of lovin', love her, watch her closely too
She's gonna trifle on ya, Lord, they'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin'
Lord, you'll nearly lose your mind
Now you come home to your mama, find your clothes ain't clean
You can bet you're slippin', if you get just what I mean
She's gonna trifle on ya, Lord, she'll do it every time
And when your baby starts steppin'
Lord, you'll nearly lose your mind
