about

Just some blues rock fun. I was inspired by the music of "Little Feat" when I wrote this one.

lyrics

MOMMA TOLD ME
By Ted Lehman & Randy Bishop (ASCAP) (c) 2005

I lost all my money
My house and my car
Got holes in my shoes
But I can't go far
Been down so low
Been up so high
But losin' it all
Can make a grown man cry

Chorus: My Mama told me
That life can be cruel
You gotta' work real hard
Don't act like no fool
Mama told me
My Mama told me (repeat)

You know I drowned all my sorrows
With a bottle of Jack
It made me feel better
So I kept coming back
My woman she left me
She left me here all alone
You know that I'm hurtin' baby
Right down to the bone

Bridge: All these years
I've been singin' the blues
Lord I'm so tired
Of paying my dues

I've been all alone
Without even one friend
I keep coming back
I keep trying again
The songs that I sing
They come from my heart
Won't somebody listen
I'm not too old to start
