Your Mom's in My Business

Deep down, I could tell, though, your sister wanted to make up (make up)

With Sam, because, she wanted to become his wife

And now, she can't do that because, your mother runs her life (life)

You baby, you do the same things, too

You always want to do the crazy things your mommy wants you to do

Like when we went to the movie, she had to come along

I went back and forth, and forth and back, for peanuts and popcorn

She took advantage, 'cause I was living fat

I couldn't even watch the movie, she kept me running back

For something that she wanted somewhere else in the store

I walked and got it all 'til the man said there's no more

And when I got back to the car, she took her time to move over

When I sat in the car, my movie was like over

I was mad, hurt, I didn't want to talk

Deep down, I wanted you and your mommy both to walk

I took you home anyway, like what the heck

'Cause, I was raised to treat people's mothers with respect

But when we got to your home, we wasn't left alone

She waited there in the car, with us until I headed home

You called me on the phone, saying, "You were alone"

But that's a lie, 'cause, I heard your moms breathing on the phone (phone)

And if you really like me, let your moms know

She should mind her business, before I let go

Your mom's in our business, she's in our business

Can't you see, girl, your mom's trying to end this?

Your mom's in our business

Now, tell your moms to mind her business (business), before I let go

Your mom's in our business, she's in our business

Can't you see, girl, that your mom's trying to end this?

Your mom's in our business

Now, tell your moms to mind her business (business), before I let go

Without a doubt, me, like when I come to your house

She'll ask me crazy questions, and start looking in my mouth

Her friends start laughing, and I feel just like a jerk

I told 'em I don't know where my mom and dad work (work)

I really know where they work, but that's between them and me

See, I can't be putting mom and dad's business in the street

'Cause, if I told her that my family both work for the state

Right after that, she would've asked me how much money do they make?

Then she'd go around the town, bragging and boasting

Telling the neighborhood what my family's grossing

Your moms, your moms, why is she so nosy?

She plays me like a game, but I'm no ring-around-the-rosy (rosy)

I even seen your dad at the family barbecue

He said, "I don't see nothing wrong with my daughter seeing you"

But it's your wife mister, she don't think that I'm charming

She thinks she's Mr. Whippit, and she thinks I'll squeeze her charmin' (charmin'

I promise, I won't do this to your daughter, calm man

'Cause, when I'm with girls, my reputation is not harming

If I'm not on tour, I'm working out at my house

I'll pick your daughter up, sometime, and I'll even take her out

And every time I try to do this, I see, without a doubt

Your wife will follow me around, like a cop on a stakeout

And when I told the man that, I thought he would help me out

'Til he said, "I can't tell her nothing, she'll kick me out the house"

See, I know you girls (I know you girls), I know you girls (I know you girls)

I know you girls (I know you girls), I know you girls (I know you girls)

Mothers love you, and they're concerned

But if you don't solve your own problems, then how can you learn?

And guys, if you're in a relationship like this

Don't be afraid to tell your girlfriend, tell your moms to mind her business (business)

But after me and you girl, I'd rather stay solo

'Cause, your mom can't mind her business

I'm a have to let you go (go)

Because, your mom is in my business

Your mom's in our business, she's in our business

Can't you see, girl, your mom's trying to end this?

Your mom's in our business

Now, tell your moms to mind her business (business), before I let go

Your mom's in our business, she's in our business

Can't you see, girl, that your mom's trying to end this?

Your mom's in our business

Now, tell your moms to mind her business (business), before I let go

Aww, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww (be-be-be-be-before I let go)

(Be-be-be-be-before I let go)

1990 Solo (1990 Solo)

(Before I let go)
