Ask any of the chickies in my pen They'll tell you I'm the biggest mother hen I love them all and all of them love me Because the system works, the system called reciprocity Got a little motto Always sees me through When you're good to Mama Mama's good to you There's a lot of favors I'm prepared to do You do one for Mama She'll do one for you They say that life is tit for tat And that's the way I live So, I deserve a lot of tat For what I've got to give Don't you know that this hand Washes that one, too? When you're good to Mama Mama's good to you If you want my gravy Pepper my ragù Spice it up for Mama She'll get hot for you When they pass that basket Folks contribute to You put in for Mama She'll put out for you The folks atop the ladder Are the ones the world adores So boost me up my ladder, kid And I'll boost you up yours Let's all stroke together Like the Princeton crew When you're strokin' Mama Mama's strokin' you So what's the one conclusion I can bring this number to? When you're good to Mama Mama's good to you (ah yeah)
Thank you for this! It has helped me practice for an upcoming audition. It would be great if you wouldn't mind answering my question - I need the sheet music for the audition and would like to sing in the key you played, so is the sheet music the exact one you put in the description or will I need to transpose it at all? Many thanks in advance!
Hello, thank you for the amazing accompaniment. I just want to ask if this accompaniment work if we add the acting part before "If you want my gravy" between Mama Matron and Velma?
Thanks for the compliment! I'm not sure - I played this accompaniment from the Vocal Selections publication so it won't have the 'vamped' music you would have in the score. I hope that helps!
Hello I love your accompaniment so muccch been looking for a piano instrumental! huhu I would just like to ask if I can use this as my instrumental for my voice exams in school?
Ask any of the chickies in my pen
They'll tell you I'm the biggest mother hen
I love them all and all of them love me
Because the system works, the system called reciprocity
Got a little motto
Always sees me through
When you're good to Mama
Mama's good to you
There's a lot of favors
I'm prepared to do
You do one for Mama
She'll do one for you
They say that life is tit for tat
And that's the way I live
So, I deserve a lot of tat
For what I've got to give
Don't you know that this hand
Washes that one, too?
When you're good to Mama
Mama's good to you
If you want my gravy
Pepper my ragù
Spice it up for Mama
She'll get hot for you
When they pass that basket
Folks contribute to
You put in for Mama
She'll put out for you
The folks atop the ladder
Are the ones the world adores
So boost me up my ladder, kid
And I'll boost you up yours
Let's all stroke together
Like the Princeton crew
When you're strokin' Mama
Mama's strokin' you
So what's the one conclusion
I can bring this number to?
When you're good to Mama
Mama's good to you (ah yeah)

With this particular sheet music link, you'll need to transpose it to the key of A to match this accompaniment. Break a leg at your audition! 🎭🥰
