I Truly Understand That You Love Another Man

You may wonder what's the reason

For this great big smile

Say I haven't been so happy

For the longest while

Got a big load off my mind

Here's the papers sealed and signed

And the judge was nice and kind

All through the trial

This ends the five year war

I am Miss Waters once more

I can go where I please I can go when I please

I can flit fly and flutter like the birds in the trees

Because I'm no man's mamma now

I can do what I like I can say what I like

I'm a gal who is on a matrimonial strike

Because I'm no man's mamma now

I'm screamin' there I know how

A fella feels gettin' out of jail

I've got twin beds

But I take pleasure in announcin' one's for sale

Am I makin' it plain I will never again

Drag around another ball and chain

Because I'm no man's mamma now

I can smile I can wink I can go take a drink

And I don't have to worry what my hubby will think

Because I'm no man's mamma now

Get it fixed

I can spend if I choose I can play and sing the blues

There's nobody messing with my ones and my twos

Because I'm no man's mamma now

I tell you there was a time

I used to think that men were grand

No more for mine

I've gone and labeled my apartment

No man's land

I got rid of my cat 'cause my cat's name was Pat

Won't even have a mailbox in my flat

Because I'm no man's mamma now

I'm make the play

Now I never again

Definitely not never about change

Because I'm no man's mamma now
