Lyrics
Mama Needs a Girls' Night Out--Written By Laura Roppé
She was up four times in the night with baby
Can't think clearly to save her life
Laundry piling up is downright dreary
And the older one's begging for a pony ride
There's only one thing to do, if she wants to stay sane
She calls up her girlfriends all with babies on the brain
Put your kids to bed, get your skinny jeans on
Bust me outta here, cuz I'm so far gone
Moms Gone Wild
Mama needs a girls' night out!
Moms Gone Wild
Lord knows she loves her child
But Mama needs a girls' night out!
She's cutting up their food at dinner time
Clipping coupons on Sunday cuz she's saving every dime
Husband off to work, two ships in the night
No time for nothing 'cept hello and goodbye
She sees dirty diapers when she closes her eyes
The older ones crying cuz she dropped her French fries
Get out the high heels and perfume . . .
Buckle up, girlfriend, gonna howl at the moon
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
But she's gotta let off some steam
Cuz she's coming apart at the seams
Guitar Solo
She's a good girl, not crossing any lines
Knows the diff between right and wrong
Gonna let loose with the girls tonight
Gonna dance all night, gonna have some fun
She's not looking for trouble, just a bottle of beer
With her gaggle of girlfriends a couple times a year
She's not asking too much to break free for one night
Gonna turn uptight into feeling all right
Moms Gone Wild
Mama Needs a Girls Night Out
Moms Gone Wild
Moms Gone Wild
Mama Needs a Girls Night Out
Moms Gone Wild
Lord knows she loves her child
But Mama needs a Girls night out!!!
