Ma, she's making eyes at me
Ma, she's awful nice to me
Ma, she's almost breaking my heart
I'm beside her
Mercy! Let her conscience guide her!
Ma, she wants to marry me
Be my honey bee
Every minute she gets bolder
Now she's leaning on my shoulder
Ma, she's kissing me

Ma, she's making eyes at me
Ma, she's awful nice to me
Ma, she's almost breaking my heart
If you peek in, can't you see
I'm goin' to weaken
Ma, she wants to marry me,
Be my honey bee
Ma I'm meeting with resistance
I shall holler for assistance
Ma, she's kissing me
