Brownskin Mama Blues by Blind Blake Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Brownskin mama what in the world you want me to do
Brownskin mama what in the world you want me to do
You keep my poor heart aching I'm blue through and through

[Verse 2]
I helped you when you were down and could not help yourself
I helped you when you were down and could not help yourself
Now I'm down you want to help somebody else

[Verse 3]
You can go do anything that you want to do
You can go do anything that you want to do
Some day you want me mama and I won't want you

[Verse 4]
You treat me lowdown and dirty baby that's all you do
You treat me lowdown and dirty baby that's all you do
But some old rainy day it's coming home to you

[Verse 5]
My mind's all churned up that's why I'm all confused
My mind's all churned up that's why I'm all confused
That's the reason why I'm moaning these brownskin mama blues
