MY MAMA USED TO
TELL ME SON YOU BETTER
GET YOUR WORK DONE
YOUR DADDY'S
COMIN' HOME AT FIVE
AND IF YOU AIN'T
ALL THROUGH
WITH THE CHORES
YOU GOT TO DO
BOY I'M GONNA TAN YOU
ALIVE
I WAS GLUED
TO THE RADIO
LISTENIN' TO MY HERO
SINGIN' THEM
SAD OLD SONGS
SINGIN' 'EM SADDER
THAN A ONE CAR
FUNERAL
NOBODY SINGS
LIKE JONES
I'D TAKE THAT
OLD KITCHEN BROOM
UP TO MY ROOM
AND I'D PLAY IT
LIKE AN OLD GUITAR
OR SIT OUT
ON THE PORCH
TRYIN' TO SING
LIKE GEORGE
AND DREAMIN'
OF BECOMING A STAR
WELL
THINGS I NEVER DID
WHEN I WAS JUST A KID
MADE ME
WHAT I AM TODAY
YOU SEE MAMA
USED TO WHOOP ME
WITH A GEORGE JONES'
ALBUM
THAT'S WHY I SING
THIS WAY
6 BAR
BREAK
SO I ENDED UP
IN NASHVILLE
WORKIN' AT A SAWMILL
JUST TO BE CLOSE
TO THE STARS
I GOT A LITTLE BROKE
BUT I COULDN'T ASK
MY FOLKS
SO I HAD TO HOCK
MY OLD GUITAR
I STILL HANG AROUND
TOOTSIE'S ORCHID
LOUNGE
THINKIN'
HE'LL WALK THROUGH
THAT DOOR
BUT A VOICE IN MY MIND
SAY YOU'RE WASTIN'
YOUR TIME
'CAUSE GEORGE
DON'T DRINK
NO MORE
I USED TO TAKE
THAT OLD BROOM
UP TO MY ROOM
AND I'D PLAY IT
LIKE AN OLD GUITAR
OR SIT OUT
ON THE PORCH
TRYIN' TO SING
LIKE GEORGE
DREAMIN' OF BECOMING
A STAR
WELL THINGS
I NEVER DID
WHEN I WAS JUST A KID
MADE ME WHAT I AM
TODAY
YOU SEE MAMA
USED TO WHOOP ME
WITH A GEORGE JONES'
ALBUM
THAT'S WHY I SING
THIS WAY
8 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
WELL
THINGS I NEVER DID
WHEN I WAS JUST A KID
MADE ME WHAT I AM
TODAY
YOU SEE MAMA
USED TO WHOOP ME
WITH A GEORGE JONES'
ALBUM
THAT'S WHY I SING
THIS WAY
MAMA USED TO
WHOOP ME
WITH A GEORGE JONES'
ALBUM
THAT'S WHY I SING
THIS WAY AY AY AY AY
