josie toney - mama lou lyrics
[verse 1]
nighttime often finds me on east street and third
at a tavern better known as eddy and flo’s golden bird
where an old gold+toothed lady with a big bamboo fan
plays the piano and sings with an old cajun band
[chorus]
sing the blues, blues
wear out your shoes mama lou, mama lou
in the bayous they named you, and hard times have tamed you
not a good man wants to claim you, sing the blues mama lou
[verse 2]
through the midnight hours at the old golden bird
mama lou sings the blues like a prophet that’s lived every word
smothered in blue light and lost in the rhymin’
mama lou, mama lou, she’ll sing you the blues for a dimе
[chorus]
sing the blues, blues
wеar out your shoes mama lou, mama lou
in the bayous they named you, and hard times have tamed you
not a good man wants to claim you, sing the blues mama lou
in the bayous they named you, and hard times have tamed you
not a good man wants to claim you, sing the blues mama lou
