Sweet Mama
Billy Joe Shaver
Sweet mama, lay your burdens down
Sweet mama, lay your [Incomprehensible] down, yeah
Come here and I'll tell you 'bout some truth in life I've found
Sweet mama, set yourself right down
You know pride, it ain't worth a US dime, no it ain't mama
Well no pride, it ain't worth a poor man's time
It's misery to be so jealous all the time
Sweet mama, Lord, be kind to your mind, sweet mama
Sweet mama, girl, you're so feelin' fine
You may think this is just a line
I only put these words into this little song
But to try, girl, and help us get along
