Ain't No Wheels on This Ship

I used to have big money,
That was many moons ago
You used to call me honey,
Now you call me so-and-so.

'Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship,
And we can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll!

You used to be Big Papa,
The cat of every ball,
Now listen, Little Papa,
You done had your big downfall.

'Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship,
And we can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll!

You used to like my lovin,
Because you liked my dough,
Now you don't want my lovin,
'Cause there ain't no dough no more!
And there ain't no wheels on this ship,
And we can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll!

Well, I'll tell you for the last time,
And I've told you this before,
If you want to keep your mama,
Ya gotta love me more and more.

'Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship,
And we can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll, roll, roll,
We can't roll!...
