Mama's Baby Child

I was born'd on the levee, I'm my mama's baby child

Yes, you know, it ain't but one thing I hate, some women have made mama's baby wild

Yes, if I'd have listened, yes, to what my mama said

If I'd have listened, yes, to what my mama said

Yes, you know, I wouldn't be here this evening, I'm talking about, with a hung-down head

Yes, you know, I'm going back home to mama, fall down on my mama's knee

I'm going back home to mama, fall down on my mama's knee

Yes, you know, I'm gonna ask my mama, "Please, ma'am, pray for me"
