You know I'm a guitar king,
I blow the blues everywhere I go
You know I'm a guitar king
You know I blow the blues
everywhere I go
You know I can blow this blues, mama
Un til my baby tell me please
don't go
I went to my baby's house,
you know I knocked upon the door
What you tell you man?
I went to my baby's house
And I knocked upon the door
You know she had the nerve to tell me
Little guy, she didn't want me no
more
You know, my mama told me
She said, son, you're much too old
Oh
My mama told me
She said, son,
you're much too old
If she mistreats you, darling
I swear it's gonna cut me to my
soul
You know I was born under a failed sign
You know ain't that a dirty shame
I was born under a dead sign
Girl, ain't that a dirty shame?
Yeah, you know I'm lovin'
a mad woman
And I'm afraid, good
God, I'm afraid to call her name
