Song lyrics Black Snake Moan by Blind Lemon Jefferson

I ain't got no mama now
I ain't got no mama now
She told me late last night, "You don't need no mama no how"
Mmm... mmm... black snake crawlin' in my room
Mmm... mmm... black snake crawlin' in my room
And some pretty mama better come and get this black snake soon
Oh... oh... that must have been a bed bug, baby a chinch can't bite that hard
Oh... oh... that must have been a bed bug, honey a chinch can't bite that hard
Ask my baby for fifty cents, she said "Lemon, ain't a child in the yard"
Mama, that's all right, mama that's all right for you
Mama, that's all right, mama that's all right for you
Said "baby that's all right, most seen all you do"
Mmm... mmm... what's the matter now?
Mmm... mmm... honey what's the matter now?
Tell me what's the matter, baby, don't like no black snake no how
Where... wonder where my black snake gone?
Where... wonder where this black snake gone?
Black snake mama done run my darlin' home
