Song lyrics
I’m weary an’ blue, broken hearted too.
Mama, diggin’ in my burden, all alone for you
Yes …

Mama, you didn’t play fair, you left your burden for me to bear.
But some sweet day, I know it won’t be long.
You’ll regret the day when you find me gone

Mama, mama, listen to your daddy’s moan
Mama, mama, daddy wants you to bring it back home.
I’m takin’ you back mama, although you in the wrong.

All night long, I travel through the rain and snow.
I give you my money, my love, why did you go?
I’m takin’ you back mama, but I won’t be the fool I was before.

Sweet woman, I give you my money, I let you do as you please.
Sweet woman, I give you my money, I let you do just as you please.
But I see where you just tryin’, to make a chump out of me.

Mama, but your mistreatin’ ways has made a great change in me.
Mama, your mistreatin’ ways has made a great change in me.
Although I’m takin’ you ‘cause I love you, but I ain’t the chump I used to be.
