Tanya Tucker - What's Your Mama's Name şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Tanya Tucker

albüm: Tanya Tucker Live at Church Street Station


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 man's 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?
