The Brothers Four - Angelique-o Lyrics

Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Mama's got to take you back,
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Teach you all the things you lack.
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Mama's got to take you back,
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Teach you all the things you lack.

Well, you never got time to sweep the dirt
Mama's got to take you back,
And you never got time to wash a shirt,
Mama's got to take you back,
You never got time to cook and peel
Mama's got to take you back,
Well, you think you can make it on sex appeal
Mama's got to take you back.

Mama's got to take you back,
Teach you all the things you lack,
When she bring her back to me
We'll live together in harmony.

Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Mama's got to take you back,
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Teach you all the things you lack.
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Mama's got to take you back,
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Teach you all the things you lack.

Oh well, you never learn how to cook a stew
Mama's got to take you back,
And your biscuits, Lord, I can hardly chew,
Mama's got to take you back,
These clothes I'm wearing they're full of holes
Mama's got to take you back,
While you run around in a big mink stole,
Mama's got to take you back,

Mama's got to take you back,
Teach you all the things you lack,
When she brings her back to me
We'll live together in harmony.

Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Mama's got to take you back,
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Teach you all the things you lack
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Mama's got to take you back,
Angelique-O, Angelique-O,
Teach you all the things you lack,

Teach you all the things you lack,
Mama's got to take you back...
