I saw a stage version of this where they had her grope the breast of one of the prisoners during this song and it completely changes the context of the ENTIRE song ("life is tit for tat and that's the way I live," "when you're strokin' Mama, Mama's strokin' you," "she'll put out for you"…)
I may be a skinny lil white girl, but I belt the HELL outta this when no-one's looking… It always makes me feel like a total bad*ss who's suddenly 'winning' at life. 🙂
I. Watches. Queen latifah. Movies. That. Like. A. Just. Wright. Or. Last. Holiday. That. You. Did. Made a. Very. Good. Healthy. Food. That. I. Am a type 2. Diabetic. My. Food. Kindly. Look. Bad. Right. Now
The number is sexy as hell, and the fact that Dana got the lounge scene/singing done in one take proves just how much of a Queen/boss Latifah/Owens is.
This Song is so 'Gay–Prison Gay'….thought that from 1st viewing the film during Its Original release….known a number of Dudes who worked as Guards in various Prisons and one or two Wardens….and quite a few Dudes, who served time….Oh yeah….this Song fits many a situation…'Even' if and when a Dude is 'straight'…(just makes it HOTTER!)…LoL.
And now ladies and gentlemen the Keeper of the keys, the Countess of the clink, the Mistress of Murderers Row, Matron Mama Morton!
Ask any of the chickies in my pen They'll tell you I'm the biggest Mutha… 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 ragu 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 a top 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!

Loved this musical 👌
This is beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊
Pqp, Chicago é um dos únicos musicais (além de Heathers) que eu verdadeiramente prefiro a versão brasileira, muito mais expressiva!
That scrummy, dummy Mummy of mine ~ xxx…

I'd pay good money to go and see chicago live again

(͡°͜ʖ͡°)(͡°͜ʖ͡°)(͡°͜ʖ͡°)
you put in for Mama
she'll put out for you
Where is Queen Latifah?
this song gives me vibes of thats rich from newsies omg
Man can we talk about the percussion in this? Those drums are perfect for the raunchy, upbeat tempo.
Her dance/outfit is 50% of my love for this song 😍
The number is sexy as hell, and the fact that Dana got the lounge scene/singing done in one take proves just how much of a Queen/boss Latifah/Owens is.
I love it. I like it. I love you. And I miss you.

Does anybody else desperately wanna hear a gender swapped version of this swapping mama for Daddy?
Makes me wanna strut around my room dancing
This is now my theme song
QUEEN LATIFAH?!?!?! OMG she is beyond talented !!!!! WOOOOOWWW !
Anybody else think of Ursula's Poor Unfortunate Souls when hearing this? Queen Latifah should be Ursula in the new live action Little Mermaid
😉
0:26 Oh Heeello trumpet…😏
They'll tell ya I'm the biggest mother……..hen.
Every Mom's theme song.
Mama needs more screen Time-
Red from OITNB is shaking.
And now ladies and gentlemen
the Keeper of the keys,
the Countess of the clink,
the Mistress of Murderers Row,
Matron Mama Morton!
Ask any of the chickies in my pen
They'll tell you I'm the biggest Mutha… 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
