I've got the blues for mammy and mammy's got the blues for me

I have been wondering ever so long but now I am homing that's where I belong

I wonder why I've wasted all of these years

But now I cry I'm not ashamed of my tears

For I've got the blues for mammy and mammy's got the blues for me

[ guitar - fiddle - piano ]

Now I've got the blues for mammy...
