Water rambling through the cracks in trees
Mama loves a man named Sleeve
Rainy day's a ways away, miles apart
Mama that old Sleeve took a piece of your heart
Mmmm mmmm
Wrapped around your shoulder in a long tight squeeze
Mama just can't seem to shake this old man Sleeve
Shirt's been worn and torn, holes wide as a mile
Be that as it may, still makes my mama smile
Mmmm mmmm, mmmmmm
After goin' coast to coast to see the ocean tide
Sleeve says, "Mama, can I make you my bride?"
Mama holds a toast wearing a diamond ring
Sleeve says, "Mama, I sure love when you sing"
Mmmm mmmm, mmmmmm mmmmm mm mmmmmm mmmm
