Blues For Mama (Live) Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
Hey, Lordy, mama
I heard you wasn't feelin' good
So they're spreadin' dirty rumors
All around the neighborhood
They say you're mean and evil
Don't know what to do
And that's the reason that he's gone
And left you black and blue

[Refrain]
Hey, Lordy, mama
Hey, girl, what you gon' do?
What you gon' do?

[Verse 2]
They say he's left you all alone
To weather this old storm
And he's got another woman now
Hangin' on his arm
That fool's tellin' everybody
He's sick and tired of you
Hey, Lordy, Lordy, mama
What you gonna do?

[Refrain]
Hey, girl
You sure ain't ready for that

[Verse 3]
They say you love to fuss and fight
And bring a good man down
And you don't know how to treat him
When he takes you on the town
They say you ain't behind him
And just don't understand
Think that you're a woman
But you're actin' like a man

[Refrain]
Hey, girl

[Verse 4]
Get your nerves together, girl
And set the record straight
Let the whole round world know
It wasn't you that caused this bitter fate
All these years you loved him
And he knows it's true
'Cause what you're wantin' for your man
Is what he's wantin', too
When you love a man enough
You're bound to disagree
Ain't nobody perfect
'Cause ain't nobody free

[Refrain]
Hey, Lordy, mama
Tell me, what you gon' do now?
