*(Verse 1)*
Maude, Maude, how good you are
You made me glad you became a star
You have a kind of glow that only
A mother-in-law could show
*(Chorus)*
And then Maude, and then Maude
The things you say, the way you applaud
And then Maude, and then Maude
There's nothing bad about you, oh, no
*(Verse 2)*
Maude, Maude, how great you are
To keep that family on par
You have more patience in that household
Than any woman could be allowed
*(Chorus)*
And then Maude, and then Maude
The things you say, the way you applaud
And then Maude, and then Maude
There's nothing bad about you, oh, no
*(Bridge)*
I wonder how that family would get along without you
You could make me leave home if it weren't for your smiling face
*(Chorus)*
And then Maude, and then Maude
The things you say, the way you applaud
And then Maude, and then Maude
There's nothing bad about you, oh, no
*(Outro)*
Oh, no
