Well, ain't got no momma now
Yeah, ain't got no momma now
She told me late last night
You don't need no momma no how
Sit here wonderin' would a matchbox hold my clothes
Yeah, matchbox hold my clothes
I ain't got so many matches
But Lord I got so doggone far to go
I got a great long snake crawlin' around my room
Yeah, crawlin' around my room
Handsome pretty momma better come down here
Take that long snake soon
That must been a bedbug, I know a chinch can't bit that hard
Yeah, chinch can't bit that hard
Asked my woman for fifty cents
She said, "Jimmie, I ain't got a dime in the yard"
Well, well ain't got no momma now
Yeah, ain't got no momma now
She told me late last night
You don't need no momma no how
