Raised To My Hand Lyrics by Arthur “Big Boy” Crudup

Rock Me Mamma

0

[Verse 1]
I had a little woman, she was nice and kind in every way
I says I had a woman, she was nice and kind in every way
Now, but she livin' in Chicago
Yes, and she change her way
[Verse 2]
Though she's a southern raised woman
And I raised her to my hand
She's a southern raised woman
And I raised her to my hand
Now she livin' in Chicago
And she goin' from man to man
[Verse 3]
I said "Oh lord, have mercy
My baby don't know what she done"
I said "Lord, have mercy
She don't know what she done"
She just runnin' around here tryin' to lose her happy home
[Verse 4]
Baby, I knowed you, woman
Whеn you didn't have a dress to wear
I knowеd you, woman
When you didn't have a dress to wear
Yeah, you was runnin' around on 35th & Main
Lord, and your feets was bare
[Verse 5]
I taken you in, thought that we could be free
I taken you in, thought that we would be free
Now your mind ain't on me, baby
It's on other men
