Blues For Mama Lyrics - Nina Simone Sings The Blues - Nina Simone

Hey Lordy mama 

I heard you wasn't feeling' good 

They're spreadin' dirty rumors 

All around the neighborhood 

They say you're mean and evil 

And don't know what to do 

That's the reason that he's gone 

And left you black and blue 

Hey yeah 

Tell me what you gonna do now

They say he's left you all alone 

To weather this old storm 

He's got another woman now 

Hangin' on his arm, yeah yeah yeah 

That old fool's tellin' everybody 

He's sick and tired of you 

Hey Lordy Lordy mama 

What you gonna do 

Hey yeah 

Tell me what you gonna do 

They say you love to fuss and fight 

And bring a good man down 

And don't know how to treat him 

When he takes ya' on the town 

They say you ain't behind him 

And just don't understand 

And think that you're a woman 

But actin' like a man 

Hey Lordy mama 

What you gonna do now? 

Photos 

Get your nerves together, baby 

And set the record straight 

Set it straight 

Let the whole round world know 

It wasn't you that cause his bitter fate 

All these years you loved him 

And he knows it's true 

'Cause what you're wantin' for your man 

Is what he's wantin', too 

Hey yeah 

Tell me what you gonna do now 

When you love a man enough 

You're bound to disagree 

'Cause ain't nobody perfect 

'Cause ain't nobody free 

Hey Lordy mama 

Tell me what you gonna do 

What you gonna do
