Mama Knows How To Rumble Lyrics

I'm down on my luck, I lost the appeal

I'm back in the jailhouse, Mama, what's the deal?

It's hard time now, look what they got me in

Come and bust me out, come and get your kin

Mama, I'm going out of my mind

Mama, I don't know how to pass the time

Oh, look out

Not a moment too soon

Get em, Mama

I don't need a shovel for digging a tunnel

She's got two fists and it's double trouble

This hoosegow gonna be a pile of rubble

Mama knows how to rumble

She got my brothers in the tumble

Breaking out, it ain't no trouble

Oh, Mama, come quick

After they spring me, I'm gonna get drunk

And then my Ma's gonna fix us lunch

We'll be on our way after I kip

There's a job in Ocala

They say there's gold in that horse shit

Ma says it's the big one this time

But that's it for her and her life of crime

But Ma, there's so many trains and so little time

I'm ready to roll, I'm ready to rumble

Who says life needs to be a struggle

On the run, it ain't no trouble

Mama taught us how to survive

Toughened us up on the outside

But none of that matters behind bars

If a pony can't run, it's gonna have a broken heart
