SWEET MAMA

SWEET MAMA COME ON AND ROCK ME.
ROCK YOUR LOVIN' DADDY ALL NIGHT LONG.
SWEET MAMA COME ON AND ROCK ME.
ROCK AWAY MY SOUL UNTIL MY BLUES ARE GONE.

WELL I THOUGHT I'D SEEN ALL THE HARD TIMES,
I THOUGHT THAT I'D HAD THE BLUES,
I THOUGHT THAT I'D BEEN DOWN OUT,
I THOUGHT THAT I'D BEEN USED.
THE MORE I TRY TO MAKE IT,
THE HARDER I'M KNOCKED DOWN.
THERE'S NO ONE LEFT TO LEND A HAND,
MY FRIENDS HAVE ALL LEFT TOWN.

SWEET MAMA COME ON AND ROCK ME.
ROCK YOUR LOVIN' DADDY ALL NIGHT LONG.
SWEET MAMA COME ON AND ROCK ME.
ROCK AWAY MY SOUL UNTIL MY BLUES ARE GONE.

WELL A DOLLAR AIN'T WORTH A NICKEL.
AND THE AIR'S TOO THICK TO BREATHE.
MY CAR BROKE DOWN 'BOUT A MONTH AGO,
AND I'M TOO BROKE TO LEAVE.
A SANDWICH COSTS A DOLLAR,
AND A STEAK IS MADE OF GOLD.
MY SON HAS GOT LEAD POISONING,
AND I AM GROWING OLD.

SWEET MAMA COME ON AND ROCK ME.
ROCK YOUR LOVIN' DADDY ALL NIGHT LONG.
SWEET MAMA COME ON AND ROCK ME.
ROCK AWAY MY SOUL UNTIL MY BLUES ARE GONE.
ROCK AWAY MY SOUL UNTIL MY BLUES ARE GONE.
