Performed by
Long “Cleve” Reed & Little Havery HullMama You Don’t Know How Lyrics
[Intro]
Play it, boys, while I sing it
[Verse 1]
Oh, ain't got no mama now
Oh, ain't got no mama now
Gon' be another war, don't need no mama nohow
[Verse 2]
Lord, out late last night, mama, everything was still
Lord, out late last night, baby, everything was still
Here to meet my sweet baby easin' 'round the hill
[Verse 3]
Lord, I'd rather be dead, mama, molded in the clay
Lord, I'd rather be dead, baby, molded in the clay
See my sweet baby treated this a-way
[Verse 4]
Oh, mama, you don't know how
Oh, baby, you don't know how
Got another sweet baby, Lord, she's shakin' it now
[Verse 5]
Gonna sing this verse, mama, ain't gon' sing no more
Gonna sing this verse, baby, ain't gon' sing no more
'Cause that landlady's liquor, Lord, is comin' too slow
