Bedroom Eyes


Mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
Or how a woman uses them to hypnotize
A man into doing things he should not do
Because, if mama ever told me about them bedroom eyes
I wouldn't be here sad and blue
Crying my heart out over you
But, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
No, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes

Mama used to tell me about a lot of things
How the sun comes up, and why the robin sings
All the things she thought her little man should know
But, nowhere up and down the line
While mama was filling up my mind
Did mama tell me about someone who could hurt me so
You know how to play the game so well
But, that's a little secret you won't tell

And, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
No, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes

Mama told me stay inside on a rainy day
And, when the cat's away the mice will play
Mama's words they sure rang true
Then you come waltzing across the floor
Moving in a way I've never seen before
And, I forget everything but you
How I wish you could have left my heart alone
But, you cast it aside like a rolling stone

And, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
No, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes

Mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
Or how a woman uses them to hypnotize
A man into doing things he should not do
Because, if mama ever told me about them bedroom eyes
I wouldn't be here sad and blue
Crying my heart out over you
But, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
No, mama never told me about them bedroom eyes
