Hey, pretty mamma, I'm as blue as the skies above
Hey, pretty mamma, you're the only woman I love
And your daddy's gonna love you
But I just can't have you blues (honey, ease my mind)
You told me if I called you on the phone tonight you'd be in
What makes you tell me them lies when you know it's a dog gone sin
I guess I'll have to settle for
Them lovin' can't have you blues (she just wasn't there, that's all)
You may be havin' your fun you may be out on the run, that's fine
But a love like your's, baby, someday is bound to go blind
So come home because your daddy's got
Them love you can't have you blues (you gotta change your mind)
I've reached my verdict that you women are all the same
You run away and leave me then you say I got myself to blame
So come on back, daddy's got them
Love you can't have you blues (I'll never change my mind)
If I look at the wall that old wall looks back at me
Everywhere that I look it's the same old colour to me (blue)
So hurry home, daddy's got
Them love you can't have you blues
