[Verse 1]
C G
You're long and strong like a railway trestle
G C
Dad's just a muscle and mama just a vessel
C G
Meant to crawl, fallin' over nuzzle and nestle
G C
Dad's just a bear you can tackle down and wrestle
C G
Son, give me time I'm a bona fide mess-up
G C
Mama says no; maybe dad'll say yes sir
C G
Did you do wrong? Well go ahead confess up
F G
Dad just a muscle and mama just a vessel
[Verse 2]
C G
You all blue and your mama like a rattle
G C
Came out looking like a Smurf in a battle
C G
Me in the nosebleeds, mama in the saddle
G C
Brave like a Sioux brave going into battle
C G
Emotion going like a stampede of cattle
G C
Real like rain and coffee in Seattle
C G
Anesthesiologist fiddle and faddle
F G
You all blue and your mama like a rattle
[Verse 3]
C G
Oh life's so clear like a Rivera mural
G C
Lucifer's teeth, introduce the epidural
C G
Doctor Jones, do you need a heaven referral?
G C
God sent you down to me and my girl
C G
She's long and tall and healthy as hell
G C
But the plan went to hell when the little fella fell
C G
Boy went headfirst into her pelvis
F G
Nineteen fifty-six shakin' like Elvis
[Verse 4]
C G
Yesterday-born and already thinkin'
G C
Body like a Ford and a mind like a Lincoln
C G
Mama and Papa in love and sinkin'
G C
Into a brand new situation drinkin' up
C G
Coffee like a fish on the second and third shift
G C
Loving every single ever-loving minute of this
C G
Standing ovation for the OR specialist
F G
Let me get close, wanna give my son one kiss, on his head
[Verse 5]
C G
Planning for the future; health and dental
G C
Picking up my baby boy, easy and gentle
C G
Soup for the family: sausage and lentil
G C
Beans and greens, arugula and fentil
C G
Don't go to sleep, I'm about to go mental
G C
But nothing so far has been accidental
C G
Can't keep my life so it's gotta be a rental
F G
Picking up my baby boy, easy and gentle
[Verse 6]
C G
You're long and strong like a railway trestle
G C
Dad's just a muscle and mama just a vessel
C G
Meant to crawl, fallin' over nuzzle and nestle
G C
Dad's just a bear you can tackle down and wrestle
C G
You can have a pop-tent or you can have a castle
G C
Try to change people but it's gonna be a hassle
C G
Don't have to be an astronaut for NASA
G C
But it's always good to get a gown and a tassel
C G
Son, have fun with your life it's a drama
G C
Just one period and all kinds of commas
C G
Now you got a onesie but then you get pajamas
F G
You know you've got me and you know you've got your mama
