Verse
Yes now, wake up mama, turn your
lamp down low
Wake up mama, turn your lamp
down low
Have you got the nerve to drive
poor Papa Taj from your door?
Verse
Woke up this mornin' baby, I had
them Statesboro blues
(Statesboro Georgia, that is)
Woke up this mornin', had them
Statesboro blues
Looked over in the corner, well
my baby had 'em too
Verse
Mama died and left me reckless,
Papa died and left me wild
I ain't good lookin' baby, but I'm someone's sweet angel child
Going to the country, baby do
you want to go?
I know if you can't make it,
your sister Lucille say she
wanna go

Verse
You know I loved that woman
better than any woman I'd ever
seen
Yes I loved that woman better
than any woman I'd ever seen
She treat me like a king, I
treat her like she was a doggone
queen
Outro
Wake up mama, turn your lamp
down low
Wake up mama, turn your lamp
down low
Have you got the nerve to drive
Papa Taj from your door?
