Lyrics Warrant – You’re The Only Hell Your Mama Ever Raised

Well I heard mama late last night
She was talkin’ to my father
Now it’s time that boy was shippin’ out
And I mean come hell or high water

Smokes and spits and drinks and fights
And his friends all look like trouble
Oh, he sleeps all day and gone all night
Where’s that boy I used to cuddle
Ten good years and then he must have gone insane

You’re the only hell you’re mama ever raised
She tried to tell you but you got to do things your own way
Says you’re a good boy
And that you must be goin’ through some phase
You’re the only hell your mama ever, mama ever raised

Susie sneaks out all the time
She says it’s only fair
Now mama won’t let me have no fun
Sometimes I think she’s Linda Blair
Sixteen years of pristine tears then Susie changed her ways

You’re the only hell you’re mama ever raised
She tried to tell you but you got to do things your own way
Susie was always goin’
Probably just goin’ through some phase
You’re the only hell your mama ever, mama ever raised

You’re the only hell you’re mama ever raised
She tried to tell you but you got to do things your own way
Should know better
That you must be goin’ through some phase
You’re the only hell your mama ever, mama ever raised
Mama ever raised

Oh, yeah
Oh mama, little boy may be leaving today
I don’t care what you say
Mama I’ve got to go and fly away
