what’s your mama’s name child
what’s your mama’s name

thirty some odd years ago a young man came to memphis
asking ’bout a rose that use to blossom in his world
people never took the time to mind the young man’s questions
until one day they heard him ask a little green eyed girl

what’s your mama’s name child what’s your mama’s name
does she ever talk about a place called new orleans
has she ever mentioned a man named buford wilson
what’s your mama’s name child what’s your mama’s name

twenty some odd years ago a drunkard down in memphis
lost a month of life and labored to the county jail
just because he asked a little green eyed girl a question
and offered her a nickels worth of candy if she’d tell

a year and some odd days ago an old man died in memphis
just another wayward soul the county had to claim
inside the old mans ragged coat they found a faded letter
it said you have a daughter and her eyes are wilson green

what’s your mama’s name child what’s your mama’s name
does she ever talk about a place called new orleans
has she ever mentioned a man named buford wilson
what’s your mama’s name child what’s your mama’s name

what’s your mama’s name child
what’s your mama’s name
