Listen, Sister, you should wear a smile
Jump for joy like a child
Big fat mamas are back in style

Listen, Brother, come on turn that dial
Hear that crowd, they're goin' wild
Big fat mamas are back in style

You need a big fat mama
Boy, you can't go wrong
You need a big fat mama 
To rule your home sweet home

Listen, Mama, keep that double chin
'Cause the little fat mamas
And the big fat mamas are back in style again

Baby, you ain't got a waistline
Mama, don't get streamlined
Keep that fat right where it's at
It's mine and that's that

(Instrumental Break)

You need a big fat mama
Boy, you can't go wrong
You need a big fat mama 
To rule your home sweet home

Sister, sister, keep that double chin
'Cause the little fat mamas
And the big fat mamas are back in style again
