I'm in love with you baby But your mother, she's got the mood I'm in love with you baby But your mother, she got the mood I just, I just can't help myself Lord, I got those mother-in-law blues Whenever I'd go for a ride in the country She wants to ride along too I had to trade and get a sports car With bucket seats just for two Whenever I get a phone call I bet your 5 against your 10 That she's on the extension line Just tryin' to listen in Whenever I try to watch television And get me some peace of mind I bet she's up to walk in my room And twist to channel 9 A man's home is supposed to be his castle Where he is supposed to be the king But as long as this woman is in my house Our love won't be a thing I'm in love with you baby But your mother, Lord, she's got the mood I just, I just can't help myself Lord, I got those mother-in-law blues Oh yeah, Lord don't you know I got those, I got those mother-in-law blues
