SPOKEN: Play it, boys, while I'm singin'!

  Oooh, ain't got no mama now

  Oooh, ain't got no mama now

  Gonna be another war, don't need no mama nohow

  Lord, out late last night, mama, everything was still

  Lord, out late last night, baby, everything was still

  H'it were me and my sweet baby, easin' 'round the hill

  Lord, I'd rather be dead, mama, moldered in the clay

  Lord, I'd rather be dead, baby, moldered in the clay

  See my sweet baby, treated this-a-way

  Oooh, mama, you don't know how

  Oooh, baby, you don't know how

  Got another sweet baby, Lord, she's shakin' it now

  Gonna sing this verse, mama, ain't gon' sing no more

  Gonna sing this verse, baby, ain't gon' sing no more

  'Cause the landlady's liquor, Lord, it's comin' too slow
