Sweet mama, set yourself right down
Well no pride, it ain't worth a poor man's time
You know pride, it ain't worth a US dime, no it ain't mama
I only put these words into this little song
Sweet mama, Lord, be kind to your mind, sweet mama
Come here and I'll tell you 'bout some truth in life I've found
It's misery to be so jealous all the time
Sweet mama, girl, you're so feelin' fine
You may think this is just a line
