My Black Mama, Pt. 1 - Son House
Hey black mama what's the matter with you
Said it ain't satisfaction don't care what I do
Hey mama what's the matter with you
Said it ain't satisfaction baby don't care what I do
You take a brown-skinned woman will
Make a rabbit move to town
But a jet-black woman will
Make a mule kick his stable down
Oh a brown-skinned woman will
Make a rabbit move to town
Oh but a jet-black woman will
Make a mule kick his stable down
Ain't ain't no heaven ain't no burning hell
Where I'm going when I die can't nobody tell
Oh it ain't no heaven now ain't no burning hell
Oh where I'm going when I die
Can't nobody tell
Well my black mama's face
Shines like the sun
Oh lipstick and powder sure
Won't help her none
My black mama's face shines like the sun
Oh lipstick and powder well
That sure won't help her none
Well you see my milk cow
Tell her hurry home
I ain't had no milk since
That cow been gone
If you see my milk cow
Tell her hurry home
Yeah I ain't had no milk
Since that cow been gone
Well I'm going to the racetrack
To see my pony run
He ain't the best in the world
But he's a running son of a gun
I'm going to the racetrack
To see my pony run
He ain't the best in the world
But he's a running son of a gun
Oh Lord have mercy on my wicked soul
Wouldn't mistreat you baby
For my weight in gold
Oh Lord have mercy on my wicked soul
Mmm
