Artist/Band: Joe Cocker
Lyrics for Song: Oh mama
Lyrics for Album: Jamaica Say You Will [1975]



Oh mama

I don't want to feel this way

Oh, no not another day, please

Oh mama

Take me home

I don't want to be alone no more mama



I try to kick him off

But he hangs around

I try to stand up

But I fall back down



Rescue

A mean ol' man's

Got a hook on me

Oh mama



Oh mama

I try to kick him off

But he hangs around

I try to stand up

But I fall back down



Oh mama

It's so cold

I just don't know no more



Oh mama

Oh mama


Oh Mama
