Goodbye Mama Blues lyrics
by John Prine
[Chorus]
I got them goodbye mama she’s a long gone blues
I got them goodbye mama she’s a long gone blues
Well I ought to be sorry but I just can’t lose
[Verse 1]
I got f*cked up last night, spent every dollar I had
I got f*cked up last night, spent every dollar I had
Woke up this morning, I never been so glad
[Chorus]
I got them goodbye mama she’s a long gone blues
I got them goodbye mama she’s a long gone blues
Well I ought to be sorry but I just can’t lose
[Verse 2]
I saw that old woman of mine, she never looked so good
I saw that old woman of mine, she never looked so good
Go on now mama, shake it like you should
[Verse 3]
Well that’s all there is, ain’t nothing more to say
Well that’s all there is, ain’t nothing more to say
I’m feeling good, just another day
[Chorus]
I got them goodbye mama she’s a long gone blues
I got them goodbye mama she’s a long gone blues
Well I ought to be sorry but I just can’t lose
Well I ought to be sorry but I just can’t lose
Well I ought to be sorry but I just can’t lose
