Mama he treatin' your daughter mean,
Oh Mama he treatin' your daughter mean,
He's the meanest man I've ever seen

Mama he treats me badly
Makes me love him madly
Mama he takes my money
Makes me call him honey

Mama he can't be trusted
Whoo I'm so disgusted
I Said Mama he treatin' your daughter mean,
Oh Mama he treatin' your daughter mean,
He's the meanest man I've ever seen.

Mama this man is lazy
Almost drives me crazy

Mama he makes me squeeze him
Still my squeezes don't please him

Mama my heart is aching
I believe it's breaking
I Said Mama he treatin' your daughter mean,
I Said M ama he treatin' your daughter mean,
He's the meanest man I've ever seen

Mama he treatin' your daughter mean, (treatin' your daughter Mean)
Oh Mama (Mama) he treatin' your daughter mean, (treatin' your daughter Mean)
He's the meanest man I've ever seen

He's the meanest man I've ever seen.
