Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve, baby
To turn Pappa Mc Tell from your door
I woke up this morning, I had them Statesboro Blues
I woke up this morning, I had them Statesboro Blues
Well, I looked over the corner,
And Grandpa seemed to have them too
Well, my momma died and left me reckless
My poppa died and left me wise
I ain't good looking, baby
But I'm someone sweet and kind
I'm goin' to the country
Baby, don't you want to go?
'Cause if you can't make it,
Your sixteen little sis said she wanna go
I love that woman
Better than any woman I've ever seen
Well, I love that woman
Better than any woman I've ever seen
Well, now she treat me like a king,
And I treat she like it was a doggone queen
Oh, wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve
To turn Pappa Mc Tell from your door.

Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
You got no nerve, baby

Well, I looked over the corner,
And Grandpa seemed to have them too
Well, my momma died and left me reckless
My poppa died and left me wise

Well, now she treat me like a king,
And I treat she like it was a doggone queen
Oh, wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low
