Well I met him on Friday night at the Blue Parrot Lakeside Bar
Where you can come by boat, if it’s easier that coming in the car
Said he’d like to hear some Johnny Cash told me he could sing it
We had a smoke, took a shot and he sang it like he meant it.
His mama taught him how to be a good boy
From the day he was born til the day he left home
Mama raised him up to be a good boy,
And his daddy showed him how to be a good man
That was a lot of sunsets ago. Seen a lot of people come and go.
And time keeps a moving on our friendship’s still goin’ strong
Good to know ya and call you my friend, be good to know ya ‘til the very end.
His mama taught him how to be a good boy
To wash his hands, and say please and thanks
Mama raised him up to be a good boy,
And his daddy showed him how to be a good man
He likes to sing about trains and pickup trucks
Fallin’ down in the rain and getting back up
Drinkin at the bar and losing his keys. There’s a party on the C Dock goin’on ‘til three
Mama taught him how to be a good boy
Hold the door, and put his money in the bank
Mama raised him up to be a good boy,
And his daddy showed him how to be a good man
His Mama Carcelle, and his Daddy, George Boyett, are holding hands in Heaven,
Sittin’ at the right hand of the Father, looking down on the whole Boyett clan.
Always a Mama’s Boy
