Verse 1
Mama got the blues all about 'em
Ain't no tellin' what, we's
gonna do
Can't stop that feeling
It's all about to change, that's
what they're sayin'
Where we gonna run to
Mama got the blues, and what
Lord
Is we gon' do?
Verse 2
Lord I got a bad old feelin'
Hummin' that old distant melody
Don't see no future
It all a' been a' buildin' up on
my shoulder
Holdin' me under
Mama got the blues, and what
Lord
Is we gon' do?

I don't know no way around in
Any old way I's goin' down gon`

Any old way
We on our way on this long

But it's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
