	  		Mama don't whup Little Buford      by Homer and Jethro (I think) 
D                      G 
Mama don't whup Little Buford 
D                       A7 
Mama don?t pound on his head 
D                      G 
Mama don?t whup Little Buford 
  A7                           D 
I think you should shoot him instead 

D                       G 
Buford brought home his report card 
D                         A7 
Buford was proud as could be 
D                          G 
As last, he passed to the third grade 
  A7                      D 
And Buford is just twenty-three 

D                      G 
Mama don?t whup little Buford 
D                     A7 
Mama you?ll just be a wreck 
D                      G 
Buford?s been studying judo 
  A7                            D 
And he?ll break your scrawny old neck 

D                  G 
At five Buford was smoking 
D                           A7 
And drinking hard liquor at six 
D                         G 
At seven he learned about women 
  A7                          D 
At eight Buford got his first fix 

D                      G 
Mama don?t whup Little Buford 
D                      A7 
You don?t know how he feels 
D                     G 
Buford is good to you Mama 
  A7                      D 
He brings you whatever he steals 

D                      G 
Buford is gone, what a pity 
D                         A7 
At last we have found happiness 
D                           G 
We bought a new home in the city 
        A7                 D 
And we won?t give him our address 

D                      G 
Mama don?t whup Little Buford 
D                                A7 
Mama, you'll only knock out your breath 
    D                  G 
Just teach him to be a musician 
    A7                         D 
And Buford will soon starve to death
