You don`t have to have a hanker
To be a broker or a banker
No siree just simply be
My mother`s son-in-law
Needn`t even think of tryin`
To be a mighty social lion
Sipping tea if you`ll be
My mother`s son-in-law
Ain`t got the least desire
To set the world on fire
Just wish you`d make it proper
To call my old man papa
You don`t have to sing like bledsoe
You can tell the world I said so
Can`t you see you`ve got to be
My mother`s son-in-law
You don`t have to sing like jessel
You can tell the world I said so
Can`t you see you`ve got to be
My mother`s son-in-law
