Ida Cox One Hour Mama Lyrics

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



I'm a one hour mama

So no one minute papa

Ain't
the kind of man for me

Set your alarm clock papa

One hour, that's
proper

Then love me like I like to be



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



I'm a one hour mama

So no one minute papa

Ain't the kind of man for me



I
can't stand no greenhorn lover

Like a rookie goin' to war

With a
load of big artillery

But don't know what it's for



He's got
to bring me a reference

With a great long pedigree

And must prove
he's got endurance

Or he don't mean that to me



I don't like
no crowin' rooster

What just kicks a lick or two

Action is the only
booster

Of just what my man can do



I don't want no
imitation

My requirements ain't no joke

Cause I've got pure
indignation

For a guy what's lost his stroke



I'm a one hour
mama

So no one minute papa

Ain't the kind of man for me

Set
your alarm clock papa

One hour, that's proper

Then love me like I
like to be



I may want love for one hour

Then decide to make
it two

Takes an hour before I get started

Maybe three 'fore I'm
through



I'm a one hour mama

So no one minute papa

Ain't the kind of man for me
