[Mica Roberts, Toby Keith - Things a Mama Don't Know lyrics]
I threw my bags in his back seat
Gave my mom a kiss on the cheek
Said, "Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be fine"
My mama never liked him much
Always thought he was kinda rough
And nothin' in this world could
Change a girl's mind no use tryin'
Mom, he's a real go-getter
Love hasn't ever felt better
You won't believe all the
Things he's promisin' me
California, that's where we're goin'
He swears he can make a fortune
I know you don't think I should go
There's some things a mama don't know
The money ran out in Vegas
She's an all-night diner waitress
She'll do anything just to get by
The hardest work he's done
On his big career's
A fifth of whiskey and a case of beer
When I talk to mama, I lie i've got my pride
Mom, he's a real go-getter
Love hasn't ever felt better
You won't believe all the
Things he's promisin' me
California, that's where we're goin'
He swears he can make a fortune
Hope my voice don't let my secret show
There's still some things a mama don't know
Like wakin' up to broken dreams every day
Like knowin' there's a little one on the way
Like believin' that someone you
Love can change
Like hidin' the bruises on my face
Just for everyone else's sake
But mom, he's a real go-getter
Love hasn't ever felt better
You won't believe all the
Things he's promisin' me
California, that's where we're goin'
He swears he can make a fortune
Mama says, "Baby, you can come back home"
But there's some things a mama don't know
Gave my mom a kiss on the cheek
Said, "Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be fine"
My mama never liked him much
Always thought he was kinda rough
And nothin' in this world could
Change a girl's mind no use tryin'
Mom, he's a real go-getter
Love hasn't ever felt better
You won't believe all the
Things he's promisin' me
California, that's where we're goin'
He swears he can make a fortune
I know you don't think I should go
There's some things a mama don't know
The money ran out in Vegas
She's an all-night diner waitress
She'll do anything just to get by
The hardest work he's done
On his big career's
A fifth of whiskey and a case of beer
When I talk to mama, I lie i've got my pride
Mom, he's a real go-getter
Love hasn't ever felt better
You won't believe all the
Things he's promisin' me
California, that's where we're goin'
He swears he can make a fortune
Hope my voice don't let my secret show
There's still some things a mama don't know
