I got my mama's green eyes and my daddy's wild hair
Mama was a green eyed city girl
A perfect lady in her lace and pearls
Daddy was a wild haired country boy
And I was her little bitty bundle of joy
While daddy rock and rolled, mama rocked the cradle
We sat at the fire while she set the table
How we got together was a mystery
They sure made a mess when they made me
I got my mama's green eyes and my daddy's wild hair
I'm a straight shootin' double barrel one of a pair
I like to go out havin' fun
Won't share my baby with anyone
I got a restless heart and a jealous bone
I want him waitin' when I get home
Nobody ever said love was gonna be fair
Got my mama's green eyes and my daddy's wild hair
Oh daddy was drawn to the lights downtown
I know in my soul he never fooled around
He liked to go out and get a little crazy
But he never cheated on his wife or baby
Like daddy, like daughter, like mama, like me
I'm as faithful as I can be
But when the dance floor's full and my band is cookin'
You can't blame a girl for lookin'
I got my mama's green eyes and my daddy's wild hair
I'm a straight shootin' double barrel one of a pair
I like to go out havin' fun
Won't share my baby with anyone
I got a restless heart and a jealous bone
I want him waitin' when I get home
Nobody ever said love was gonna be fair
Got my mama's green eyes and my daddy's wild hair
I got a restless heart and a jealous bone
I want him waitin' when I get home
Nobody ever said love was gonna be fair
Got my mama's green eyes and my daddy's wild hair
