Lyrics
Sweet mama, lay your burdens down Sweet mama, lay your troubles down, girl 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 No, pride, it ain't worth a poor man's time It's a misery to be so jealous all the time Sweet mama, honey, be kind to your mind
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, sweet mama
