Mama’s little baby won’t hush down
She’s spookin’ all the hens and the old milk cow
           Eb                Cm
Rest your head in the cradle now
      Gm                         Gm
Ain’t no one gonna hear a sound
VERSE:
              Gm
Daddy laid it all on the wrong black mare
Hopped the next train to god knows where
              F
But God don’t go where your daddy’s gone
           Gm                          Gm
Where the cowards and the fools belong
VERSE:
            Gm
Mama waited up on the porch all night
Waited up ‘til the morning light
              Eb                       Cm
She fed those hens and she milked that cow
         Gm                             Gm
Then she got behind the old man’s plow
BDA K:
               Gm
And late last night a bad man came
           Gm
Screamin’ curses at your daddy’s name
           Eb                        Cm
You woke screamin’ to a frightening sound
          Gm
And your mama laying on the ground
           Eb                          Cm
A bad man running down the back door stairs
         Gm                           Gm
Blame it all on the wrong black mare
VERSE:
              Gm
Mama’s little baby won’t hush down
She’s spookin’ all the hens and the old milk cow
           Eb                Cm
Rest your head in the cradle now
      Gm
Ain’t no one gonna hear a sound
