Beggin' Mama Blues lyrics

Please, don't put me down, daddy

Cause I want you for my man

No, please, don't put me down, daddy

Cause I want you for my man

I'm going to straighten up and fly right

And stop my raising sand

I'll get up early every morning

Bring your breakfast to your bed

You can spend my money like you want

And nothing will ever be said

Cause before I'd lose you, daddy

I swear I'd just as soon be dead

No, there's no one else can love me

Please, believe every word I say

When you're gone I am never contented

When you're here, I'm always gay

You told me that if I cool down, daddy

You'd come back this time to stay

Now, I'm at your mercy, daddy

Use me as you please

Yes, I'm begging you, pretty daddy

Down on my bended knees

Say that you still love me

And set that heart of mine at ease
