Mama 't Ain't Long Fo' Day Lyrics


Blind Willie Mctell Mama 't Ain't Long Fo' Day

Songwriters: Mctell, Willie;

Wake up mama, don't you sleep so hard
Wake up mama, don't you sleep so hard
For it's these old blues walkin' all over your yard
I've got these blues [Incomprehensible] I'm not satisfied
I've got these blues, I'm not satisfied

That's the reason why I stroll away and cry
Blues grabbed me in midnight, they didn't turn me loose till day
Blues grabbed me in midnight, didn't turn me loose till day
I didn't have no mama to drive these blues away

The big star fallin', mama 't ain't long fo' day
The big star fallin', mama 't ain't long fo' day
[Incomprehensible] sunshine I drive these blues away

Oh, come here quick, come on mama, now I've got you
