I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He must have been a heck of a man

'Cause mama was a lady don't you now

Mama was no prude but she was proper

Never wore her dress too short

She didn't care if you did

But she'd never taken a drink

Grandma Kate did the best she could

To see mama grew up right

So she'd be fittin' one day for courtin'

And to wear some gentleman's ring

I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He was always laughing

and sang a right sweet song

I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He must have been a heck of a man

'Cause mama was a lady don't you know

I hear he came to town one day

In a rusty old '49 Ford

Sellin' ladies shoes

And assorted greeting cards

He was killin' good lookin' and easy to like

And turnin' all the ladies heads

But he saw mama first

And Lord knows how some of them

travelin' men are

I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He was always laughing

and sang a right sweet song

I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He must have been a heck of a man

'Cause mama was a lady don't you know

Mama seemed to forget the things

That grandma Kate had always told her

She ran away one night

With that traveling man

They bought gas at Reba's Truck Stop

And drove to Deseto County

But he brought her home

With a ring upon her hand

Mama's told me how the fever took him

When I was barely five

But I remember him pitchin' me up

And catchin' me

And I love to sit and listen to her

Tell me about my daddy

She says she thought

The sun must surely rise and set in me

I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He must have been a heck of a man

'Cause mama was a lady don't you know

I wish I'd known the man a little better

that turned my mama on

He must have been a heck of a man

'Cause mama was a lady don't you know
