My mama she said live well alone
And remember what I said
even when you're grown
She said you and your brother
best learn to share
To do always what's right and what's fair
And be slow what you take
Cause you reap just what you make
And don't fight like two dogs and one bone
Said it's better to give than to receive
And to always tell the truth
and don't deceive
And make sure that you do
What your mama tells you to
And don't fight like two dogs and one bone
And remember what I said
even when you're grown
She said you and your brother
best learn to share
To do always what's right and what's fair
And be slow what you take
Cause you reap just what you make
And don't fight like two dogs and one bone
Said it's better to give than to receive
And to always tell the truth
and don't deceive
And make sure that you do
What your mama tells you to
And don't fight like two dogs and one bone
