Eeee wah-wah-wah-wab-wah
Eeee wah-wah
Eeee wah-wah wah wah
Good Lord
Good Lord
Send me an angel down
Can`t spare you no angel
but I'll swear I'll send you a teasing brown
That new
Way of loving
Mama, it must be best
These here Georgia women
just won't let Mr. Samucl rest
There was a crowd
Oue on the corner
Wondercd who
Could it be
It weren`t a thing but the women
trying to get to me
I evcn went down
To thc depot
With my suitcase in tny hand
Crying, the womens all crying
Mr. Sammy, won`t you be my man
My mama
She told me
When I Was a boy playing mumble peg
Don`t drink no black cow's milk
don't you eat no black hen`s egg
Black man
Give you a dollar, mama
He won`t think it's nothing strange
A yellow man 'll give you a dollar
but he`ll want back 95 cents change
You may call
Me a cheater
Pretty boy, I'll real treat you
But if you'll allow· me a chance
I'll gnaw your backbone half in two
I took a trip
Out on the ocean
Walked the sand of the deep blue sea
I found a crab with a shrimp
trying to do the shimmy-shee
I wanc to tell you
Something, mama
Seem mighty doggone strange
You done mess 'round, gal
and made me break my yo-yo string
Honey, I ain`t
Gonna be
Your old work-ox no more
You done mess 'round, baby
and let your doggone ox get poor
My mama
She got a mojo
Believe she tried to keep it hid
Papa Samuel got something
to find that mojo with
(Take it for me)
I even
Heard a rumbling
Deep down in the ground
It weren`t a thing but the women .
trying to run me down
(Play it low and lonaome)
