The Man That Turned My Mama On
Recorded by Tanya Tucker written by Ed Bruce

C F C
I wish I'd known the man a little better that turned my mama on
G7 F
He must have been a heck of a man cause mama was a lady don't you know

C F C
Mama was no prude but she was proper never wore her dress too short
G7 C
She didn't care if you did but she'd never taken a drink
F C
Grandma Kate did the best she could to see mama grew up right
G7 F C
So she'd be fitting one day for courting and to wear some gentleman's ring

F C
I wish I'd known the man a little better that turned my mama on
G7 C
People was always laughing and sang a right sweet song

Repeat #1

C F C
I hear he came to town one day in a rusty old '49 Ford
G7 C
Selling ladies shoes and assorted greeting cards
F C
He was killer good looking and easy to like and turning all the ladies heads
G7 F C
But he saw mama first and Lord knows how some of them traveling men are

Repeat #1

C F C
Mama seemed to forget the things that grandma Kate had always told her
G7 C
She ran away one night with that traveling man
F C
They bought gas at Reba's Truck Stop and drove to Desoto County
G7 F C
But he brought her home with a ring upon her hand

C F C
Mama's told me how the fever took him when I was barely five
G7 C
But I remember him pitching me up and catching me
F C
And I love to sit and listen to her tell me about my daddy
G7 F C
She says he thought the sun would surely rise and set in me

Repeat #1
