for i am not...my mother's girl...my mother's girl

she makes me sashay...how i fought...nobody's amused
with dolls, i must play...a whole lot...somebody's confused
i ain't no girl and i won't shake if i don't want
for i am not...my mother's girl...my mother's girl

i'm sweet, but i'm not a girl and...i've dated a few
my mother's in her own world and...don't know i'm a dude
i keep on telling her...my plumbing's just like pop's
for i am not...my mother's girl...my mother's girl
she would love if i pretend
she calls me "lynn", though i've always been called "ken"

i'll do what she says...unless its...unmanly to do
i won't walk the way...like i've seen...some women's rear view
i ain't no girl and i can't fake what i can't flaunt
for i am not...my mother's girl...my mother's girl
she would love if i pretend
she calls me "lynn", though i've always been called "ken"

i just want to say that i'm "ken"...not "abby" or "sue"
i'm not even gay...i've not been...romancing no dudes
i ain't no girl...i don't wear make-up, nor do want
for i am not...my mother's girl...my mother's girl...my mother's girl
