Ever since Monday   I've seen it comin'   When I say what's wrong   She just says nothin'   Well I ain't about to let it go   Cause I've loved her long enough to know      When Mama Ain't Happy, ain't nobody happy   So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight   I've got a limo waitin' and dinner reservations   A corner table with some candlelight   We're gonna spend some money, I'm gonna call her honey   I wanna see the sparkle back in her eyes   When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy   So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight      I see in those green eyes   Her red-head temper   And she can make July   As cold as December   Well I love her every way she is   But brother I've discovered at times like this      When Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy   So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight   I told the babysitter, fix a macaroni dinner   And try to get the kids in bed by nine   We're gonna spend some money, I'm gonna call her honey   I wanna see the sparkle back in her eyes   When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy   So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight      When mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy   So daddy's gonna make mama happy tonight
