Blame It On Mama Lyrics
When I was six or seven, Mama tucked me in,
With a lullaby and they made
my eyes open wide again.
I'd lie awake an' wonder why a boy named Billy
Joe,
Jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge to a river far below, oh. Oh,
blame it on Mama, an' the songs she loved singin'.
I'm not from Louisiana
but that don't mean a thing.
Don't come from Alabama or hail from
Tennessee,
Just blame it Mama, she sang, (She sang.)
The country
into me.
I just loved to listen as she sang those story songs,
'Bout a Coat Of Many Colors, or a girl named Delta Dawn.
When The
Lights Went out In Georgia, I would beg for just one more,
All about
Fancy and the pretty red satin dancin' dress she wore.
Oh, blame
it on Mama, an' the songs she loved singin'.
I'm not from Louisiana but
that don't mean a thing.
Don't come from Alabama or hail from
Tennessee,
Just blame it Mama, she sang, (She sang.)
The country
into me.
Instrumental break.
I'm a Coal Miner's
Daughter. (I'm a Coal Miner's Daughter.)
Lovin' that preacher's son.
(Lovin' that preacher's son.)
I have walked the Streets Of Laredo,
Stared down the barrel of a lawman's gun.
I've grown roots an' I've
got claims,
To places I've never been. (Places I've never been.)
An' when I sing those songs it takes me,
Right back home again.
Oh, blame it on Mama, an' the songs she loved singin'.
I'm not
from Louisiana but that don't mean a thing.
Don't come from Alabama or
hail from Tennessee,
Just blame it Mama, she sang, (She sang, she
sang.)
The country into me.
The country into me, yeah.
