Shake Shake Mama Songtext / Lyric

I get the blues for you baby when I look up at the sun

I get the blues for you baby when I look up at the sun

Come back here, we can have some real fun



Well it's early in the evening and everything is still

Well it's early in the evening and everything is still

One more time, I'm walking up around the hill



Shake shake Mama like a ship going out to sea

Shake shake Mama like a ship going out to sea

You took all my money and you gave it to Richard Lee






Down by the river judge Simpson's walking around

Down by the river judge Simpson's walking around

Nothing shocks me more than that old clown



Some of you women, you really know your stuff

Some of you women, you really know your stuff

But your clothes are all torn and your language is a little too rough



Shake shake Mama, shake until the break of day

Shake shake Mama, shake until the break of day

I'm right here baby, I'm not that far away



I'm motherless, fatherless, almost friendless too

I'm motherless, fatherless, almost friendless too

It's Friday morning going to Franklin Avenue



Shake shake mama, raise your voice and bay

Shake shake mama, raise your voice and bay

If you're goin' on home, better go the shortest way
