Mamas Blues - Lighnin' Hopkins

Look a here, Bill, I’d come to you one day

I was tryin' to make a way

And you was cryin' and you told me

One day you would tell me who you were cryin' for

Who were you cryin' for?

Mama, yeah

What did you want with your mama?

A drink of water, Mama

Well, go ahead and tell me how Mama treated you

Mama, Mama, oh Mama

Mama, Mama, Mama, oh Mama

Mama, whoa, Mama, what you want from me?

I want a drink of water, Mama

Ooh, ooh, ooh, Mama, whoa, what you want, son?

I want a little drink of whiskey, Mama

Yes, I just wanna get drunk, Mama

Whoa, come staggerin' one more time

Mama, Mama, please ma’am answer me, Mama

Thank you, Mama, thank you, Mama

Thank you, Mama, for every little thing you did
