| Wake up mama, turn your lamp down low
|
| Wake up mama, turn your lamp down low
|
| Have you got the nerve to drive Papa McTell from your door
|
| My mother died and left me reckless
|
| My daddy died and left me wild, wild, wild
|
| Mother died and left me reckless
|
| Daddy died and left me wild, wild, wild
|
| No, I’m not good lookin'
|
| I’m some sweet woman’s Angel child
|
| You’re a mighty mean woman, to do me this a way
|
| You’re a mighty mean woman, to do me this a way
|
| When I leave this town, pretty mama, I’m going away to stay
|
| While I loved a woman, better than even I’d ever seen
|
| I once loved a woman, better than even I’d ever seen
|
| Treat me like I was a king and she was a doggone queen
|
| Sister, tell your brother, brother tell your auntie now
|
| Auntie tell your uncle, uncle tell my cousin now, cousin tell my friend
|
| Goin' up the country, mama, don’t you want to go?
|
| May take me a fair brown, may take me one or two more
|
| Big Eighty left Savannah, Lord, and did not stop
|
| You ought to saw that colored fireman when he got that boiler hot
|
| You can reach over in the corner mama and hand me my travelin' shoes
|
| You know by that, I’ve got them Statesboro blues
|
| Mama, sister got 'em, auntie got 'em
|
| Brother got 'em, friend got 'em, I got 'em
|
| Woke up this morning, we had them Statesboro blues
|
| I looked over in the corner, grandpa and grandma had 'em too |
