Stingy mama, don't be so stingy with me
I say, stingy mama, don't be so stingy with me
Says, you's a good little girl, Lord, you so stingy with me
Throw your water out your pitcher1, mama, let your bowl go dry
Throw your water out your pitcher, let your bowl go dry
Said, I want some of your lovin', mama, just before you die
Said, my babe got a mojo and she won't let me see
Said, my babe got a mojo, she won't let me see
One mornin' about four o'clock she eased that old thing on me
Now mama, mama, you can't keep that mojo hid
I say, hey-hey, mama, can't keep that mojo hid
'Cause I got something, mama, just to find that mojo with
Now my mama left me something called that old stingaree
Hey, mama left me something called that stingaree
Says, I done stung my little woman and she can't stay away from me
