Something about you mama sure gives me the blues, hey hey
Something about you mama sure gives me the blues
It ain't your drop stitch stockings it ain't your blue buckle shoes, hey hey

You know pretty mama I'm bound to love you some, it's the truth honey
You know pretty mama I'm bound to love you some
'Cause I've done more for you than anybody ever done, you know it baby

Got me a pretty mama got me a bulldog too, sure have
Got me a pretty mama got me a bulldog too
My pretty mama don't love me but my bulldog do

[Verse 4]
There's been a groundhog rootin' round my yard at night, hey hey
There's been a groundhog rootin' round my yard at night
For the way my mama been treatin' me he must be rootin' all right
