Ma (She’s Making Eyes At Me) Lyrics

Ma, she's making eyes at me
Ma, she's awful nice to me
Ma, she's almost breaking my heart
I'm beside him
Mercy! Let his conscience guide him!
Ma, she wants to marry me
Be my honey bee
Every minute she gets bolder
Now she's leaning on my shoulder
Ma, she's kissing me

Ma, she's making eyes at me
Ma, she's awful nice to me
Ma, she's almost breaking my heart
If you peek in, can't you see
I'm goin' to weaken
Ma, she wants to marry me
Be my honey bee
Ma I'm meeting with resistance
I shall holler for assistance
Ma, she's kissing me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
