Nina Simone performing "Blues for Mama" (N. Simone and A. Lincoln)
Hey Lordy mama
I heard you wasn't feeling good
They're spreading dirty rumours all around the neighbourhood
They say you're mean and evil, and don't know what to do
That's the reason that he's gone, and left you black and blue
Hey yeah, tell me what you gonna do now
They say he's left you all alone, to weather this old storm
He's got another woman now, hanging on his arm, yeah, yeah, yeah
That old fool's telling everybody, he's sick and tired of you
Hey Lordy Lordy mama what you gonna do, hey yeah
Tell me what you gonna do
They say you loved to fuss and fights and bring a good man down
And don't know how to treat him when he takes you on the town
They say you ain't behind him, and just don't understand
And think that you're a woman but acting like a man
Hey Lordy mama, what you gonna do now
Get your nerves together, baby, and set the record straight, set it straight
Let the whole round world know it wasn't you that cause his bitter fate
All these years you loved him, and he knows it's true
'Cause what you're wanting for your man, is what he's wanting, too
Hey yeah
Tell me, what you gonna do now
When you love a man enough, you're bound to disagree
'Cause ain't nobody perfect, 'cause ain't nobody free
Hey Lordy mama, tell me what you gonna do
What you gonna do
