SONG: MAMMA TOLD ME NOT TO COME
ARTIST: 3 DOG NITE, THE ANIMALS, STEREOPHONICS AND TOM JONES
STANDARD TUNING

DONT TAKE THE TIMING LITERALLY FROM THIS TAB, ITS DEAD EASY TO
WORK OUT THOUGH. REALLY EASY TO PLAY, SOUNDS GOOD, VERY ADAPTABLE.
THIS TAB IS NOT EXACT AND DOES NOT CLAIM TO BE, IT IS A BASIC
REPRESENTATION OF MY WAY OF PLAYING IT. LOTS OF ROOM FOR IMPROV.

I thought it was "that ain't THE way to have fun". I can hear it more clearly than I can hear "NO way"... And I don't think anyone can tell what he's saying when its "that cigarette your smokin', [blank] scare me half to death" cause it sounds like he was cut off. He definitly said "scare" without an "s", so I think "don't" makes more sense. It was great how this song was playing when I had sex with a 16 year old and my mom was like "don't do anything with her until she's 17!". It was ironic. Great, timeless party song. Who says "sucker" anymore, much less a white guy? Must've been from the ghetto.

Also, it should be "It scares me half to death" rather than "Don't scare me . . ." Anyway, I love this song. It's great.

There are some words missing in the refrain. It should read "That ain't no way to have fun, son." The words "no way" are missing each time a variation of the refrain is repeated.
