Momma Bob Seger

[Verse 1]
I was the baby brother
I was the quiet other
And I remember mother
So well
I was the little stranger
I never was in danger
I coulda had a manger
Pray tell

[Pre-Chorus]
But oh, how she could control me
And when I was bad she'd scold me
Sometimes she wouldn't hold me
And I'd cry

[Chorus]
But Momma she never told me a lie
Momma she never told me a lie

[Verse 2]
I used to stay out evenings
Stay out too late some evenings
And Momma would be there seething
Back home
Momma she sat and waited
Sat in the hall and waited
Now I know why she hated
That phone
