Strange Place Blues Lyrics

I'm a stranger at this place
And I'm lookin' for my mother's grave
I'm a stranger at this place
And I'm lookin' for my mother's graveWell, it seems like to me
Ooh, well some of us goin' to wailI was at mother's grave
When they put my mother away
I was at mother's grave
When they put my mother awayAnd I can't find no one
Ooh, well, to take her placeAfter my mother was put away
I thought my wife would take her place
After my mother was put away
I thought my wife would take her placeI'll show you difference 'tween a mother and a wife
Well, my wife done throw me awayI wished I could find someone
To take my mother's place
I wished I could find someone
To take my mother's placeAnd if I can't find no one
Ooh, well, you'll find me at her graveI'm standin' on my mother's grave
And I wished I could seen her face

I'm standin' on my mother's grave
And I wished I could seen her faceI'll be glad when that day comes
Ooh, well when it be to dive me away
