Mama came to the Delta 1922

Found a new home in the county they call Yazoo

Well her name was Juanita born in Mexico Mamacita

Juanita born in Mexico

Claimed she was kin to Santa Anna

Famous from the Alamo

Mama met my daddy workin' her tamale stand

Well my mama met my daddy workin' her tamale stand

My daddy was a black man proud to work his own land

I was raised on tamales collard greens an' blues

Raised on tamales good collard greens an' blues

Never had much money

But we all wore store-bought shoes

Mama named me Diego Señor

Diego James Petway

My mama named me Diego James Petway

With my ol' Uncle Bob taught me to barrelhouse this-a-way

Played 'round the Delta never been to Chicago

Now man I never been up there

Round the Delta never been to Chicago

But I got a mind to meet my kin down in Mexico
