Momma Knows

Demo vocals by Chelbie Birdwell

Verse 1:
You were sneaking out your window
She was peeking in your room
While you headed out to meet that
Boy you thought she never knew

She'll pretend not to notice
Lipstick smeared around your mouth
As you're making up excuses
Why your shirt is inside out

She can tell a from a joker from a jack
She can tell a chicken snake from a diamondback

Chorus:
Momma knows, she knows better
Than to believe everything you tell her
You can try your best to hide but it's no use
She can smell smoke under perfume
Hear doors closing after curfew
So do yourself a favor, tell the truth
Oh, ohhhhh
Cause Momma knows.

Verse 2:
You can tell her he's a good boy
Clean him up and bring him home
But she's gonna find out when
She sees the tattoos on his arm

There's no use denying what you've done
She can spot the devil even in a preacher's son

Chorus:
Momma knows, she knows better
Than to believe everything you tell her
You can try your best to hide but it's no use
She can smell smoke under perfume
Hear doors closing after curfew
So do yourself a favor, tell the truth
Oh, ohhhhh
Cause Momma knows.

Bridge
She's only trying to protect you
Knows the danger all too well
She knows exactly how to get to you.
Cause she's been out a window or two herself.

Chorus:
Momma knows, she knows better
She's tried every line you tell her
You can try your best to hide but it's no use
She can smell smoke under perfume
Hear doors closing after curfew
So do yourself a favor, tell the truth
Oh, ohhhhh
Cause Momma knows.
