Mama Told Me Not to Come Lyrics | Genius Lyrics Tom Jones – Mama Told Me Not to Come Lyrics | Genius Lyrics

Nuz from NzNo one seems to have commented on the similarity between the intro of Three Dog Night's version of this song and the intro to CCR's Born on the Bayou. Obviously they borrowed from CCR because the CCR version came out in 1969. Jonathan from Stamford, CtOn the album Eric Is Here, Eric Burdon, formerly of The Animals, does a version of this song. I haven't heard it though. :-(John from Wilkes Barre, PaYou all are wrong, the song "Mama told me not to come" is a double on tundra on a sexual act that is pretty funny when you take it in the context of the actual song. The lyrics "That ain't no way to have fun - son!" ,"I'm looking at my girlfriend, she just passed out on the floor" and "That ain't no way to have fun - ah no no! (maybe I should have listened) . Yes because he got his girlfriend pregnant and that is no way to have fun, mama told me not to "c*m" It's the same thing with the song "Along comes Mary" which is a song about marijuana. So the artist just hides the truth about the song with a double on tundra to get it played on the radio. How many parents would have allowed their kids to buy the song on a 45 single if they real knew the real meaning of the song or it was written as it intended on the record label. It's a real funny song if you listen to it as a sexual double on tundra. He sings over and over again "Mama told me not to come" "Mama told me not to come" with the counter 'Mama told me She said She said". In my opinion they are going to some kind of orgy or a porn video in the making , because it's the "craziest party, there could ever be" with drugs and alcohol and that's how she ended up"passed out on the floor"

During a break, one of the band members was in the bathroom and noticed the echo in there was what they were looking for!
