Well, that's all right, mama

That's all right with you

That's all right, mama

Just any way you do

But, that's all right

That's all right now, mama

Any way you do

Well, mama, she done told me

Papa done told me too

Son, that girl you're fooling with

She ain't no good for you

But, that's all right

That's all right

That's all right now, mama

Any way you do

I'm leavin' town. my baby

I'm leavin' town for sure

Well, then you won't be botherered

With me hangin' 'round your door

But, that's all right

That's all right

That's all right now, mama

Dee-dee-deedee

I need your lovin'

Tha's all right

That's all right now, mama

Any way you do
