Sweet Mama 1922

I'm feeling blue today
my gal has gone away
she's gone and left me here all alone,
no reason can I find why she was so unkind
I know she used to love me so
I don't know what to do
she took my bank roll too
I'm down and out and lonely you see,
My clothes in soak and I'm dead broke,
Mama won't you please come back to me.

Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
Won't you please come back to me.
I'm so sad and lonely
won't you listen
to your lovin' Daddy's plea.
I woke up just this morning
the blues were round my bed
and you wasn't there sweet Mama
to rub my aching head
Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
won't you please come back to me.

Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
Won't you please come back to me.
I'm so sad and lonely
won't you listen
to your lovin' Daddy's plea.
I woke up just this morning
the blues were round my bed
and you wasn't there sweet Mama
to rub my aching head
Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
won't you please come back to me.

I got a clue today
that she was far away
it looks just like she gave me the gate,
Oh Lordy hear my plea and listen to me
Please send her back before too late
I want my Mama bad
you know she's all I had
Now life is one big worry to me
My room rents due that's why I'm blue.
Hurry up and send her C.O.D.

Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
Won't you please come back to me.
I'm so sad and lonely
won't you listen
to your lovin' Daddy's plea.
I woke up just this morning
the blues were round my bed
and you wasn't there sweet Mama
to rub my aching head
Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
won't you please come back to me.

Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
Won't you please come back to me.
I'm so sad and lonely
won't you listen
to your lovin' Daddy's plea.
I woke up just this morning
the blues were round my bed
and you wasn't there sweet Mama
to rub my aching head
Sweet sweet lovin' Mama
won't you please come back to me.
