My Black Mama Pt 1 |
| I solemnly swear, Lord I raise my right hand |
| That I’m gonna get me a woman you get you another man |
| I solemnly swear, Lord I raise my right hand |
| That I’m gonna get me a woman, babe you get you another man |
| I got a letter this morning, how do you reckon it read? |
| Oh hurry hurry, the gal you love is dead |
| I got a letter this morning, how do you reckon it read? |
| Oh hurry hurry, the gal you love is dead |
| I grabbed my suitcase, I took off up the road |
| I got there she was laying on the cooling board |
| I grabbed my suitcase, I took off up the road |
| Oh, when I got there she was laying on the cooling board |
| Well, I walked up close I looked down in her face |
| Good old girl got to lay here till judgement day |
| I walked up close and I looked down in her face |
| Yes, the good old girl got to lay here till judgement day |
| Aw, sure now. |
| I’m feelin' low down this evenin' |
| Oh, my woman so black she stays apart of this town |
| Can’t nothing go when the poor girl is around |
| My black mama stays apart of this town |
| Oh, can’t nothing go when the poor girl is around |
| Oh, some people tell me the worried blues ain’t bad |
| It’s the worst old feeling that I ever had |
| Some people tell me the worried blues ain’t bad |
| But it’s the worst old feeling, Lord I ever had |
| Mmm, I fold my arms and I walked away |
| That’s all right mama, your trouble will come some day |
| I fold my arms, Lord I walked away |
| Yeah, that’s all right mama, your trouble will come some day |
