How Could I Love Her So Much |
| Thirty some odd years ago a young man came to Memphis |
| Askin' 'bout a rose that used to blossom in his world |
| People never took the time to mind the young man’s questions |
| Until one day they heard him ask a little green eyed girl. |
| What’s your mama’s name, child, what’s your mama’s name |
| Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans |
| Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson |
| What’s your mama’s name, child, what’s your mama’s name? |
| Twenty some odd years ago a drunkard down in Memphis |
| Lost a month of life and labored to the county jail |
| Just because he asked a little green eyed girl a question |
| And offered her a nickel’s worth of candy if she’d tell. |
| A year and some odd days ago an old man died in Memphis |
| Just another wayward soul the county had to claim |
| Inside the old man’s ragged coat they found a faded letter |
| That said you got a daughter and her eyes are Wilson green. |
| What’s your mama’s name, child, what’s your mama’s name |
| Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans |
| Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson |
| What’s your mama’s name, child, what’s your mama’s name? |
| What’s your mama’s name child, what’s your mama’s name… |
