Song: Sweet Mama Tab
CAPO I
INTRO: G
RIFF: C G C D7 G (2x)
G
I was raised on the west side shanty town
I didn't get up until the sun went down
C
When your back's against the wall, you better get tough
N.C.
You learn real quick how to swing and duck
C
I was born in the sweet hot Florida sunshine
G
Good lookin' women backwoods and moonshine
D
Learned more about life on the streets than in the school
N.C.
My sweet mama didn't raise no fool, that's right
RIFF
G
Some folks cheat and some folks lie
But I can judge a man by the look in his eye
C
Don't hand by Jack and try to call it cola
N.C.
I can tell the difference between shit and shinola
CHORUS
SOLO: C G C D
G C G C G
I'm talkin' 'bout mama
G C G C D
Oh sweet mama
G
Mama was no angel but she taught me right from wrong
She knew every single word and every note of every song
C
She taught me how to gamble and how to roll the dice
If it makes you feel good do it, don't think twice
CHORUS (2x)
RIFF (4x)
