What's your mama's name child

What's your mama's name

Thirty some odd years ago a young man came to Memphis

Asking 'bout a rose that used to blossom in his world

People never too the time to mind the young man's questions

Until one day they heard him ask a little green-eyed girl:

What's your mama's name child

What's your mama's name

Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans

Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson

What's your mama's name child

What's your mama's name

Twenty some off years ago a drunkard down in Memphis

Lost a month of life in labour to the county jail

Just because he asked a little green-eyed girl a question

And offered her a nickel's worth of candy if she'd tell

A year and some odd days ago an old man died in Memphis

Just another wayward soul the county'd had to pay

Inside the old man's ragged coat they found a faded letter

It said: You have a daughter and her eyes are Wilson green

What's your mama's name child

What's your mama's name

Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans

Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson

What's your mama's name child

What's your mama's name

What's your mama's name child

What's your mama's name
