What's your mama's name, child?[00:00:00]
What's your mama's name.[00:00:07]
Thirty some odd years ago, a young man came to Memphis.[00:00:15]
Asking 'bout a rose that used to blossom in his world.[00:00:21]
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:[00:00:35]
What's your mama's name, child?[00:00:42]
What's your mama's name?[00:00:45]
Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans.[00:00:48]
Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson?[00:00:56]
What's your mama's name, child?[00:01:04]
What's your mama's name?[00:01:06]
Twenty some off years ago, a drunkard down in Memphis,[00:01:14]
Lost a month of life in labour to the county jail.[00:01:20]
Just because he asked a little green-eyed girl a question,[00:01:28]
And offered her a nickel's worth of candy if she'd tell.[00:01:33]
A year and some odd days ago, an old man died in Memphis.[00:01:44]
Just another wayward soul, the county'd had to pay.[00:01:50]
Inside the old man's ragged coat, they found a faded letter.[00:01:57]
It said: "You have a daughter and her eyes are Wilson green."[00:02:04]
What's your mama's name, child?[00:02:14]
What's your mama's name?[00:02:17]
Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans.[00:02:20]
Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson?[00:02:28]
What's your mama's name, child?[00:02:35]
What's your mama's name?[00:02:38]
What's your mama's name, child?[00:02:41]
What's your mama's name?[00:02:48]
