Something about you mama, that sure gives me the blues
Something about you mama, that sure gives me the blues
It ain't your drop stich stockings
It ain't your blue buckle shoes.
You know pretty mama, I'm bound to love you some
You know pretty mama, I'm bound to love you some
'Cause I've done more for you
Than anybody ever done.
(You know it baby.)
--- Instrumental ---
Got me a pretty mama got me a bulldog too
Got me a pretty mama got me a bulldog too
My pretty mama don't love me
But my bulldog do.
--- Instrumental ---
There's been a groundhog rootin' round my yard at night
There's been a groundhog rootin' round my yard at night
For the way my mama been treatin' me
He must be rootin' all right.
(Lord, he must be rootin' all night)
Well, I ain't no cheap man, don't try to fool no girls
I ain't no cheap man, don't try to fool no girls
It's my regular lovin'
That gets me by in this world...
