Sweet Mama Blue

I know a place in New Orleans



They call "The Castle of Kings and Queens"



Where an old sweet black woman sings



And plays piano like a dream



She puts out all her beautiful heart and soul for you



Sweet mama blue



Sweet mama blue will only sing about the truth



And it will get to you



Sweet mama blue will sing of love as only she can do



Sweet mama blue



Sweet mama Blue



One night I stayed past closing time



"Sweet mama blue my troubled mind"



She sang the night away for me



She made me see what I couldn't see



That only by loving life will all your dreams come true



Sweet mama blue



Sweet mama blue will only sing about the truth



And it will get to you



Sweet mama blue will sing of love as only she can do



Sweet mama blue



Sweet mama blue



They say she's gone from misery



But she still lives in my memory



I still can see her smile and say



"I'll bet you make it all the way"



If you will try the Lord will surely see you through



Sweet mama blue



The world sure will miss you



And when I feel blue I think of you



Sweet mama blue



Sweet mama blue
