Unknown - One Hour Mama Lyrics

ONE HOUR MAMA
(Ida Cox)

I've always heard that haste makes waste
So I believe in taking my time
The highest mountain can't be raced
It's something you must slowly climb
I want a slow and easy man
He needn't ever take the lead
'Cause I work on that long term plan
And I ain't a lookin' for no speed

I'm a one hour mama so no one minute papa
Ain't the kind of man for me
Set your 'larm clock papa, one hour that's proper
Then love me like I like to be
I don't want no lame excuses 'bout my lovin' bein' so good
That you couldn't wait no longer
Now I hope I'm understood
I'm a one hour mama so no one minute papa
Ain't the kind of man for me

I can't stand no greenhorn lover
Like rookie going to war
With a load of big artillery
But he don't know what it's for
He got to bring me ref'rence
With a long pedigree
And must prove he's got endurance
Or he don't mean snap to me
I'm a one hour mama so no one minute papa
Ain't the kind of man for me

I can't stand no crowing rooster
What just likes a hit or two
Action is the only kind of booster
Of just what my man can do
I don't want no imitation
My requirements ain't no joke
"Cause I got pure indignation
For a guy what's lost his stroke
I'm a one hour mama so no one minute papa
Ain't the kind of man for me
Set your 'larm clock papa, one hour, that's proper
Then love me like I like to be

I may want love for an hour
Then decide to make it two
Takes an hour 'fore I get started
Maybe three before I'm through
I'm a one hour mama so no one minute papa
Ain't the kind of man for me
