Ever since monday

I've seen it comin'

When i say what's wrong

She just says nothin'

Well i ain't about to let it go

Cause i've loved her long enough to know



When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight

I've got a limo waitin' and dinner reservations

A corner table with some candlelight

We're gonna spend some money, i'm gonna call her honey

I wanna see the sparkle back in her eyes

When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight



I see in those green eyes

Her red-head temper

And she can make july

As cold as december

Well i love her every way she is

But brother i've discovered at times like this



When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight

I told the babysitter, fix a macaroni dinner

And try to get the kids in bed by nine

We're gonna spend some money, i'm gonna call her honey

I wanna see the sparkle back in her eyes

When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight



When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy

So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight
