Sweet Mama, Poor Lover

SWEET MAMA, POOR LOVER

CHORUS
Sweet mama, poor lover
No attention, no affection
Children have a sweet mama
But Papa has a poor lover
Children have a sweet mother
But why is she such a poor lover

VERSE 1
Mama is a sweet mother but a poor lover
A soft kind mother who cares for her children
She fusses over us, dresses us up for school
She gives us good food every day
But I see it in my papa’s eyes
Papa hasn’t had love in so many years
She doesn’t even hold my papa hand
My papa doesn’t get no tender love and care

CHORUS
Sweet mama
Why are you such a poor lover
No attention, no affection
Children have a sweet mama
But Papa has a poor lover
Children have a sweet mother
But why is she such a poor lover

VERSE 2
My beloved reminds me of my sweet mama
Will she become a sweet mama but poor lover
She is a good girl, so holy and so kind
She’ll make a beautiful and excellent mother
But how much love and attention will I get
From this beautiful creature yeah
Will my future children enjoy a sweet mother
Whilst I pine away with a poor lover ?

CHORUS
Sweet mama
Why are you such a poor lover
No attention, no affection
Children have a sweet mama
But Papa has a poor lover
Children have a sweet mother
But why is she such a poor lover

VERSE 3
I think my beloved will be a sweet mama-poor lover
She is a busy woman and hard to impress
I spend so much time trying to impress her
I write so many songs and love letters
But she has a lot of rules, she’s like a school teacher
She’ll not say I love you, she only says: me too
She’ll not say I miss you, she only says: you too
Am I gonna have a sweet mama-poor lover

CHORUS
Sweet mama
Why are you such a poor lover
No attention, no affection
Children have a sweet mama
But Papa has a poor lover
Children have a sweet mother
But why is she such a poor lover

Coda
Sweet mama
But why is she such a poor lover
Sweet mama
But why is she such a poor lover
