Hey-hey, mama

I dream about you night and day

Hey-hey, mama

I dream about you night and day

I'm gon' take you home with me

And do my best to make you stay



I will treat you nice an kind

Handle you just like a little toy

I will treat you nice an kind, mama

Handle you just like a little toy

I will get anything you want, mama

If I can be yo' flunky boy



Sweet, sweet mama

You can make a fool outta me

Sweet, sweet mama

You can make a fool outta me

You can put rocks in my pillow

And salt in my tea



(harmonica & instrumental)



'Blow that thing, boy, blow it!'



You don't have to cook me no chicken

Just plain old neckbones will do

You don't have to cook no chicken, mama

Just plain old neckbones will do

I'm gon' buy some black-eyed peas

Just to try to get along with you



You don't have to be sweet

And kind to me all the time

You don't have to be sweet, mama

And kind to me all the time

Just treat me nice an kind, mama

And you will satisfy my mind.
