[Verse 1]
[C]One, two, three, four
What's your mama's [F]name, child?
What's [C]your [G]mama's [F]name?[C]
Thirty -some odd years ago
[F]A young man came to M[C]emphis
Asking about a [G]rose
that used to [F]blossom in his [C]world.
People never took [Bb]the time to [F]mind
the young man's [C]questions
till one day they heard [Dm]him ask a
[G]little green -eyed [C]girl,
what's your mama's [F]name, child,
[G]what's your mama's [C]name?
Does she ever [F]talk about
a place [C]called New Orleans?
[G]Has[C] she ever mentio[G]ned
a [C]man named Beaverwood [F]Wilson?
[C]What's your momma's [F]name,
child?
[C]What's your [G]momma's [C]name?
Twenty -some -odd [Bb]years ago,
a [F]drunkard down in Mem[C]phis
Lost a month of [G]life and
labor [F]to the county jail
[C]Just because he ask[Bb]ed
the little [F]green -eyed girl a question
[C]And offered her a nic[Dm]kel's worth
of [G]candy if she'd [C]tell[D]
A year and some odd [C]days ago
an [G]old man died in Mem[D]phis
Just another way[A]ward soul
the [G]county had to [D]claim
Inside the old man's [C]ragged coat
they [G]found a faded let[D]ter
That said, you've got a [Em]daughter
And her [A]eyes are wilson [D]green
What's your mama's [G]name, child?
[A]What's your mama's [D]name?
Does she ever [G]talk about
a place [D]on New Orleans?
[A]Has[D] she ever mentio[A]ned
a [D]man named Bifford [G]Wilson?
[D]What's your momma's [G]name,
child?
[D]What's your mom[A]ma's [D]name?
What's your momma's [G]name, child?
[D]What's your [A]mama's name?
[G]
