Some like 'em short, some like 'em tall
Some like 'em thin, skinny legs and all
I like 'em buttered, I like 'em proud
Now when they walk, you know they'll draw a crowd
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
Whatcha say, whatcha say
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
One more, gimme, gimme
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me, hey
Popcorn, popcorn, cheese cake, cheese cake
Honey, I can't see ya, yeah, baby
Listen here
Some like 'em short, some like 'em tall
Some like 'em thin, skinny legs and all
I like 'em buttered, I like 'em proud
And when they walk, you know they'll draw a crowd
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
Said you gotta have a mother for me
Said you gotta have a mother for me
And you gotta have a mother for me
Gotta have a mother, said you gotta have, said you gotta have,
Said you gotta have, said you gotta have
She got to use what she got to get just what she wants
She got to use what she got to get just what she wants
She got to use what she got to get just what she wants
She got to use what she got to get get get g-g-g-get
What it is, what it is, just what it is
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
Let's get outta here
See - well, you gotta have a mother for me
Gotta have a mother for me
Gotta have a mother for me
Said you gotta have a mother, gotta have a mother
Said ya gotta have, gotta have, gotta have, gotta have,
Gotta have, gotta have, gotta have oooooh
Ooooh honey you gotta have a mother for me
