Song 55: Mama’s Drinking Turpentine

Mama’s Drinking Turpentine is about a pungent oil used in varnishes and paints.

Lyrics and tabs available, free for all…

Progression: C-F-G-C, repeat. Down-tuned

Do your chores, study hard
walk the dog in your back yard

plant your flowers in a line
or mama will drink turpentine

Chorus x2:
turpentine
turpentine
mama’s drinking turpentine

dust your floor, clean up your sink
or mama will have a fatal drink

if that porcelain don’t shine
mama will drink turpentine

chorus x2

clean your sheets and make your bed
keep that language in your head

fill the bottles up with wine
or your mom will drink turpentine

chorus x2

cut your steak along the grain
trim the hedges in the rain

Clean your windows, wash the blinds
or mama will drink turpentine

chorus x2
