[Verse 1]
D D
Don't let your mama love you too long,
G G
it'll make you weak instead of strong, what's right just might be wrong,
D D
and what looks good ain't always best.
A G
But when it's time to leave the nest, if you fail to pass the test,
G D D D D
you'll be just like all the rest and you'll be sorry.
[Verse 2]
D D
Don't let your mama feed you too much,
G G
she might get you in her clutches and be just a pair of crutches
D D
that you'll have to throw away.
A G
Maybe one sad day when your hair is turned to grey
G D D
you'll remember what I say and you'll be sorry.
[Chorus]
G G
Now's the time to go before the cold winds starts to blow
D D
in any further in your home.
G G
Now's the time to know if you got have half the strength to show,
A A***
you're sure to make it all on your own.
[Verse 3]
D D
Don't let your mama catch you giving in,
G G
if you wait for too much longer those old aches when things get stronger
D D
and the feeling of the sick.
A G
Then the one you idolize won't be there to dry your eyes
G D D
'cause you'll be somewhere in the skies with no worry.
[Chorus]
G G
Now's the time to go before the cold winds starts to blow
D D
in any further in your home.
G G
Now's the time to know if you got have half the strength to show,
A A***
you're sure to make it all on your own.
[Verse 1] (Reprise)
D D
Don't let your mama love you too long,
G G
it'll make you weak instead of strong, what's right just might be wrong,
D D
and what looks good ain't always best.
A G
But when it's time to leave the nest, if you fail to pass the test,
G D D
you'll be just like all the rest and you'll be sorry.
