Wake up, mama, turn your lamp down low |
|
Wake up, mama, now, turn your lamp down low |
|
Have you got the nerve to hide (drive) Willie McTell from your door? |
|
You know I woke up in the mornin', now, I had them Statesboro Blues |
|
I woke up this morning now, I had them Statesboro Blues |
|
I looked over in the corner, grandma and grandpa had 'em too |
|
Mama got 'em, papa got 'em, sister got 'em, everybody got 'em |
|
I'm goin' to the country, mama do you wanna go? |
|
If I can't take you, I believe I'll take three or four more |
|
Mama died and left me reckless, papa died and left me wild, wild, wild |
|
Mama died and left me reckless, papa died and left me wild |
|
Ya know I ain't good lookin', but I'll stumble on a sweet angel-child |
|
(Alt. lyric : "I'm gonna find me a sweet angel-child") |
|
Mama got 'em, (doncha know ?), papa got 'em, sister got 'em, everybody got 'em |
|
I'm goin' to the country, mama do you wanna go ? |
|
If I can't take you, I believe I'll take three or four more |
