Billie Holiday - Your Mother's Son-In-Law Lyrics

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'
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 Bledsoe
You can tell the world I said so
Can't you see, you've got to be
My mother's son in law
