Subject: Lyr Req: Mama don't care for gin (handy brandy)
After I did a Mother's Day program today, a resident of the retirement residence came up to me and sang a few snippets from a song she remembered from her childhood.
It went, in part, kind of like this:

Mama don't care for gin
'Cause it makes her want to grin.

Mama don't care for whiskey,
'Cause it makes her feel too frisky.

...

She just wants to keep the brandy handy ...


Anyone familiar with this little gem?
