JELLY ROLL
"Hey Mama"

[Intro: Jelly Roll & Donna DeFord]
Hey, mama
Hi, sweet boy, what are you doing?
I'm in the studio doin', like, some last minute vocals
Can you hurry up and get that song done? I can't wait to hear it
I just wanna tell you I miss you, I love you
I miss you, bye

[Verse 1: Jelly Roll]
I'm sorry I missed your call
I lost service in Kennesaw
But I couldn't sleep one bit at all
Without your goodnight voice
I don't know where I'm headed next, but I
Wish it was my side of the bed, I
Still got a few stops left before
That's where these wheels are goin'

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
Hey, mama, don't you know that my lonely needs you to hold and
One day these winds will blow me back in your direction?
Hey, mama, wait for me, I'm still out here chasin' dreams
And one day this telephone thing won't be our one connection
I'm just doing what I gotta
Hey, mama, I'm still coming home to you

[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]
We broke down outside of Lubbock
The damn bus can't help but cussin'
These roads got its twists and turns, but I
I damn sure love it
The sunrise at a pilot's station
And all I know is my destination is nowhere near Tennessee
And that's where I need to be

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
Hey, mama, don't you know that my lonely needs you to hold and
One day these winds will blow me back in your direction?
Hey, mama, wait for me, I'm still out here chasin' dreams
And one day this telephone thing won't be our one connection
I'm just doing what I gotta
Hey, mama, I'm still coming home to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I'm comin' home to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I'm comin' home to you
