I noticed that the theme song of Mama's Family is called Bless My Happy Home and has lyrics written by Peter Katz and I didn't know that the Mama's Family theme song had lyrics because the theme song is really cute. I happened to see Vicki Lawrence perform Bless My Happy Home on Youtube and she sounded so cute and full of joy

Hi, Bestie! Mama's family was a great show! I saw it when it first came out on the Carol Burnette show. Funny, it lasted longer than Carol's show did! Just like how the Simpsons lasted longer than the Tracy Ullman show that it started out on. Who was your favorite Mama character? Mine was Eunice.

No, The Burnett Show ran from 67-78 or 11 years. Mama's Family ran from 83-90 or 7 years, although there were only 6 seasons due to the show being cancelled by NBC and then moving a year later to syndication.

I believe Vicki actually wrote the lyrics to "Bless My Happy Home." She talks about it in her two-woman show.

Yes, she did write the lyrics herself. She also talks about this in her now out-of-print book "Vicki! The True Life Adventures of Miss Fireball". She was annoyed that Carol's husband (at the time) Joe Hamilton dismissed her lyrics yet showed her title for the song listed in the end credits.
