Momma Was an Opium Smoker

Momma Was an Opium Smoker
Rasputina

Momma was an opium smoker
She'd light it with a red hot poker
She would never take a bath
We would ask her, she'd just laugh
Because our momma was an opium smoker.

She made it with this gentleman, Lincoln.
They met on a boat, it was sinking.
When she shoulda gone overboard, momma say "No way, oh my Lord,
only of opium smoke am I thinkin'."

Oh, help us, Lord.
We can't afford
Destructive ways.
You oughta' hear what she says!

She would just sit on her fat ass
Yell at us, "fill up my wine glass!"
She would tell us, "How sad,
You won't never know your dad."
Oh yeah, my momma was an opium smoker.

Go, mommy, go
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh

She'd hide the money and the drugs in the mattress.
I wonder how long she been at this
And I say, "Mom, bang the gong, can't you see it's gone all wrong?"
But momma was an opium smoker.
