JIMMIE DALE GILMORE
"Black Snake Moan"

Well, well ain't got no momma now
Yeah ~ ain't got no momma now
She told me late last night
You don't need no momma no~how

Set here wonderin' would a matchbox hold my
Clothes
Yeah ~ matchbox hold my clothes
I ain't got so many matches
But Lord I got so doggone far to go

I got a great long snake crawlin' around my room
Yeah ~ crawlin' around my room
Handsome pretty momma better come down
Here
Take that long snake soon

That must been a bedbug, I know a chinch
Can't bit that hard
Yeah ~ chinch can't bit that hard
Asked my woman for fifty cents
She said Jimmie I ain't got a dime in the yard

Well, well ain't got no momma now
Yeah ~ ain't got no momma now
She told me late last night
You don't need no momma no~how
