Sweet Mama

Sweet mama, lay your burdens down

Sweet mama, lay your [Incomprehensible] down, yeah

Come here and I'll tell you 'bout some truth in life I've found

Sweet mama, set yourself right down

You know pride, it ain't worth a US dime, no it ain't mama

Well no pride, it ain't worth a poor man's time

It's misery to be so jealous all the time

Sweet mama, Lord, be kind to your mind, sweet mama

Sweet mama, girl, you're so feelin' fine

You may think this is just a line

I only put these words into this little song

But to try, girl, and help us get along
