How is this sentence “my mama don’t like you, but she likes everyone” correct?
I just heard @love_us music by Justin Bieber! I heard the song “My mama didn’t like you but she likes everyone” and thought that was a true word. I found lyrics in ISP’s but it’s not what I heard, it is “My mama don’t like you…”.
What’s your view on this?

what should I choose (in other words, everything in HTML)?
I’m not knowing whether this sentence/phrase was used or not without not adding any contextual clues, nor have I heard it before.
Technically, the sentence “My mama don’t like you, but she likes everyone” is immature: the use of don’t instead of does’t for the third person singular is, in my experience, pretty common slang. Many people think “doesn’t” has too many syllables. Why should “didn’t” instead of “don’t” is correct(it has too many syllables) and creates an inconsistent verb tense like the rest of the song.
How do I say it isn’t true?
Why do people say that it’s wrong to slug everyone and go along with it?!

With song lyrics, as with advertising slogans, being ungrammatical is often an advantage. It makes the lyrics more memorable and less formal, and thus more intimate and relatable. Ungrammatical lyrics sound more like natural speech, and can have a more “fresh” feeling.
In addition, the native dialect of quite a lot of English-language popular music (blues, rock, jazz, hip-hop, soul and R&B) is black American vernacular English, which uses non-standard grammatical forms. What is the lyric used in your quote?
Justin Bieber’s music is nominally R&B, and many of his mentors were black, factors which may have contributed to his frequent use of black American vernacular in his songs.

What exactly is a “but” there? My Mama Don’t Like You ands she Likes Everyone?
It does its proper thing, ‘Chill’, but it’s the opposite. In terms of whether it’s wrong or right idiomatic usage matters. Native speakers understand you. They ask nice questions, they’ll answer quickly and have access to the resources you need.
What it means is his mother is so lovely, that even this lovely, friendly person does not like you, which illustrates how bad you are.
