Mama Cant Lose by Lottie Kimbrough Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1924

[Verse 1]
Folks, I have a story I must tell to you, Lord
Forlorn, myself, I got these can't lose blues
But I can't lose, how can I lose
Daddy, your mama can't lose

[Verse 2]
My man double-crossed me with another gal, Lord
That man double-crossed me and that gal was my pal
But I can't lose, how can I lose
Daddy, your mama can't lose

[Verse 3]
I'm going to the cabaret to find my used-to-be, Lord
Know my man's gonna throw a fit when he sees that brown with me
But I can't lose, how can I lose
I've got it fixed so sweet mama can't lose

[Verse 4]
If anybody should ask you who composed this song, Lord
Tell 'em sweet mama Butterball, and she didn't compose it wrong
'Cause she can't lose, how can I lose
I've got it fixed so sweet mama can't lose
