mary mccaslin & jim ringer - mama lou lyrics
[verse 1]
night time often finds me at b+street and third
at a tavern better known as eddie and flo’s golden bird
where an old gold+tooth lady with a big bamboo fan
plays the piano and sings with an old cajun band
[chorus]
sing the blues, sing the blues
wear out your shoes, mama lou, mama lou
in the bayou they named you
and the hard+life has stained you
not a good man wants to claim you
sing the blues, mama lou
[verse 2]
fill the midnight hours at the old golden bird
mama lou sings the blues like a prophet that’s lived every word
smothered in blue lights and lost in her rhyme
mama lou, mama lou, she’ll sing you the blues for a dime
[chorus]
sing the blues, sing the blues
wear out your shoes, mama lou, mama lou
in the bayou they named you
and the hard+life has stained you
not a good man wants to claim you
sing the blues, mama lou
[chorus]
sing the blues, sing the blues
wear out your shoes, mama lou, mama lou
in the bayou they named you
and the hard+life has stained you
not a good man wants to claim you
sing the blues, mama lou
