Long, Tall, Disconnected Mama
[Sloppy Henry]
Everything's high, still goin' up
Women got these triflin' men, compelled to give 'em up
Man's got the money, he's the boss
Women gon' have what they want, they don't care what it cost
You said you's right, partner, but I know you wrong!
Women ain't gonna put up with no one man the way things is goin' on
Mice'll play, cats is away
Happen to some poor married man most ever' day
I've got a long, tall disconnected mama, she's all right with me!
I like the way she stews and cooks my cabbage, way down in Tennessee
She's long and tall, look mighty lean
Ah, mama, this violin!
I've got a long, tall disconnected mama, she's all right with me
I've got a long, tall disconnected mama, honey, you all right with me
I like the way you stews and cooks my cabbage way down in Tennessee
She's long and tall, and she looks mighty lean
[Eddie Anthony]
I've good good cooking in this violin
[Sloppy Henry]
I've got a long, tall disconnected mama, she's all right with me
Long and tall, and she look mighty lean
[Eddie Anthony]
I've got good picking in this violin
[Sloppy Henry]
I've got a long, tall disconnected mama, she's all right with me!
