Lyrics:

Well listen up to what I say
I wasn't born just yesterday
I've been down the road and back a time or two
Well this should come as no surprise
You can't pull the wool over my eyes
I've had it up to here and now I'm through

And I'm sick and tired of fools
Tired of playing by the rules
Time to strut my cool
'Cause mama didn't raise no fool

Chorus:
Mama didn't raise no fool
Well my mama didn't raise no fool
You can't tell me what to do
'Cause my mama didn't raise no fool

What goes around comes back around
And I've been around a few times by now
I've seen it all before and I've paid my dues
So don't tell me no stories
And don't tell me no lies
'Cause my mother brought me up to be a bad mother too

And I'm sick and tired of fools
Tired of playing by the rules
Time to strut my cool
'Cause my mama didn't raise no fool

Mama didn't raise no fool
Well my mama didn't raise no fool
You can't tell me what to do
'Cause mama didn't raise, mama didn't raise
Mama didn't raise no fool

Chorus
Chorus (repeat)
Chorus (repeat)
