He asks her for permission
To take the car
Light his cigar
Play his guitar
Burn down the barn
He asks her for permission
To tie his shoes
To take a snooze
To read the news
To sing the blues
He's such a good boy
A real mama's boy
She treats him like a toy
He's such a good boy
He asks her for permission
To get a tan
To play his hand
To blow a grand
To be a man
He asks her for permission
To say goodnight
To see Snow White
To watch the fight
'Cause she's always right
He's such a good boy
A real mama's boy
She treats him like a toy
He's such a good boy
She points her finger
And waves her hand
And acts just like a Queen bee
But he's foolin' her
'Cause he doesn't ask
Her for permission
When he comes to see me
Comes to see me
He's such a good boy
A real mama's boy
She treats him like a toy
He's such a good boy
