My Black Mama Part 2 |
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 |
