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 about a rose that used to blossom in his world
people never took the time
to mind the young man's questions
until one day they heard a mask
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 muford wilson
what's your mama's name child
what's your mama's name
twenty some of years ago a drunkard down in memphis
lost a month of life and labor to the county jail
just because he asked
a little green eyed girl to question
and offered her a nickel's worth of candy
if she'd tell
a year and some are days ago
an old man died in memphis
just another wayward soul the county had to claim
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
