The Lovin' Cup Lyrics

By: Steve Miller

My mama 
She done told me 
Soon you be a man 
And when you find your own woman 
You got to love her the best that you can 
  
Well, if you give your love to somebody 
Make sure they don't use you up 
And if you get your love in return 
Make sure you fill the lovin' cup 
  
Oh, yeah 
Uh-huh 
La-de-ay 
  
Well, I'm goin' to the country 
Mama, don't you want to go 
The sun's gonna shine in our back door 
I know 
  
Mama 
She done told me 
Lord, you gonna be a man 
And when you find your own woman 
Gotta hold to her the best that you can 
  
I'm goin' to the country 
Baby don't you want to go 
The sun's gonna shine in our back door 
And I know 
  
To fill the lovin' cup 
Fill the lovin' cup 
Fill the lovin' cup 
Oh, yeah yeah yeah
