Looking for verses of "Your Mama don't wear no socks"
Come one come all.

Later, Jerry.

"Your mama don't wear no socks, ( a ding dong ) I was there when she took 'em off, ( a ding dong) She hung 'em on the door, ( a ding dong ) now we don't need no locks! ( a ding dong dong dong dong a ding dong!)"

this one was made up by Dr. John White , Archaeology Guru, back in 1989; I have it on video!

My three favorite "your mama don't wear no socks" verses...which is sung constantly while hiking for two months last summer along with mountain dew!

Your mama don't wear no socks
I was there when she took them off
She threw them in the tree
Now the dogs refuse to pee

Your mama don't wear no socks
I was there when she took them off
She threw them in the sky
Now Superman refuses to fly

Your mama don't wear no socks
I was there when she took them off
She threw them on the fence
Haven't seen that mailman since

Your mama don't wear no socks
I was there when she took them off
She threw them in the stew
Now it's stronger than mountain dew

As we are STILL in camping (some of us just can't seem to grow up), we sing Your Mama Don't Wear No Socks all the time! A few verses...

She threw them at the cat, now the cat's a welcome mat.

She threw them in the boat, now the boat don't float (that's Dan's favorite)

She threw them under the bed, now dear old dad is dead.

She threw them in the fireplace, now Santa ain't got no face.

She threw them down the hall, now the paint's peeling off the wall.

She threw them at the garbage can, killed two mice and the garbage man.

Enjoy -
