Mama's House Lyrics - Chesnutt Mark

There's a bottle of whiskey up above the stove, it's been there 30 years I know 

Only used for coughs and colds at mama's house 

In the air there's a combination of home baked bread and fried bacon 

No, there's no mistaking mama's house. 

Chorus: 

It seems smaller than the day I left. 

It don't matter how big I get. 

I still wipe my feet and watch my mouth. 

At mama's house. 

Thing's round here still looks the same, like a picture in a frame 

The light bill's still in daddy's name at mama's house 

You won't find one speck of dust, one dirty spoon, or coffee cup 

And that ol' dog will still eat you up at mama's house. 

Chorus: 

It seems smaller than the day I left. 

It don't matter how big I get. 

I still wipe my feet and watch my mouth. 

At mama's house. 

That driveway's still paved with white rocks 

Though her name ain't on the mailbox 

Come what may there won't be any doubt 

That's mama's house. 

Chorus: 

It seems smaller than the day I left. 

It don't matter how big I get. 

I still wipe my feet and watch my mouth. 

At mama's house.
