Hey black mama

What's the matter with you

Said it ain't satisfaction dongt care

What I do Hey mama

What's the matter with you

Said it ain't satisfaction baby

Dongt care what I do

You take a brown-skinned woman

Will make a rabbit move to town

But a jet-black woman will

Make a mule kick his stable down

Oh a brown skinned woman will

Make a rabbit move to town

Oh but a jet-black woman will

Make a mule kick his stable down

Ain't no heaven

Ain't no burning hell Where

When I'm die can't nobody tell

Oh it ain't no heaven now

Ain't no burning hell

Oh where I'm going

When I die can't nobody tell

Well my black mama's face shines

Like the sun

Oh lipstick and powder sure

Won't help her none

My black mama's face shines

Like the sun

Oh lipstick and powder

Well that sure won't help her none

Well you see my milk cow

Tell her hurry home

I ain't had no milk since

That cow been gone

If you see my milk cow

Tell her hurry home

Yeah I no milk since

That cow been gone

Well

I'm going to the racetrack

To see my pony run

He ain't the best in the world

But he's a running son of a gun

I'm going to the racetrack

To see my pony run

He ain't the best in the world

But he's a running son of a gun

Oh Lord have mercy

On my wicked soul

Wouldngt mistreat you baby

For my weight in gold

Oh Lord have mercy

On my wicked soul

Mmm mmm mmm mmm
