What's your mama's name child [00:00:01]
What's your mama's name [00:00:06]
Thirty some odd years ago [00:00:16]
A young man came to Memphis [00:00:18]
Asking 'bout a rose that used to blossom in his world [00:00:22]
People never too the time to mind the young man's questions [00:00:29]
Until one day they heard him ask a little green-eyed girl:[00:00:34]
What's your mama's name child [00:00:41]
What's your mama's name [00:00:43]
Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans [00:00:47]
Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson [00:00:54]
What's your mama's name child [00:01:00]
What's your mama's name [00:01:03]
Twenty some off years ago [00:01:10]
A drunkard down in Memphis [00:01:13]
Lost a month of life in labour to the county jail [00:01:15]
Just because he asked a little green-eyed girl a question [00:01:22]
And offered her a nickel's worth of candy if she'd tell [00:01:28]
A year and some odd days ago [00:01:37]
An old man died in Memphis [00:01:40]
Just another wayward soul [00:01:43]
The county'd had to pay [00:01:45]
Inside the old man's ragged coat [00:01:50]
They found a faded letter [00:01:53]
It said: "You have a daughter and her eyes are Wilson green "[00:01:55]
What's your mama's name child [00:02:06]
What's your mama's name [00:02:08]
Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans [00:02:11]
Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson [00:02:18]
What's your mama's name child [00:02:26]
What's your mama's name [00:02:28]
What's your mama's name child [00:02:31]
What's your mama's name [00:02:36]
