One Hour Mama

Lyrics

I've always heard that haste makes waste
 So I believe in takin' 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-time plan
 And I ain't a-lookin' for no speed
 Cause I'm a one hour mama
 No one minute papa
 Ain't the kind of man for me
 It takes a long time papa
 One hour, that's proper
 To love me like I long to be
 Why, 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
 Cause I'm a one hour mama
 No one minute papa
 Ain't the kind of man for me
 I don't want no greenhorn lover
 Like a rookie goin' to war
 With a load of big artillery
 But he don't know what it's for
