Whoopee Mama - Tampa Red

I’ve got a whoopee mama

She makes whoopee all the time

I’ve got a whoopee mama

She makes whoopee all the time

She stays full of dope and liquor

And clowns all over town

Whoopee mama

I sho' been good to you

Whoopee mama

I sho' been good to you

But I’ve done got tired

Of the dirty way you do

My whoopee mama

Treats me like a slave

My whoopee mama

Treats me like a slave

I goin' to buy me an army special

And put my baby in her grave

I work all the summer

An' I work all the fall

But even spend the winter

In a dank of overhauls

Whoopee mama

You so unkind to me

But I’m sho' goin' to get you, baby

Yes, you wait and see

You told me that you loved me

An' I caught you in a lie

Smile the day you quit me, mama

That’s the day you’ll die

Whopee mama

I’m goin' to mow you down

I’m gonna send your beautiful body

To some lonesome buryin' ground
