Blame it on Mamma
Blame it on mama and the songs she loved to sing
Iâm not from Louisiana but that donât mean a thing
Donât come from Alabama or hail from Tennessee
Just blame it on mama she sang (she sang she sang) the country into me
I just loved to listen
As she sang those story songs
'Bout a coat of many colors
Or a girl named Delta Dawn
When the lights went out in Georgia
Iâd beg for just one more
All about Fancy and the pretty red satin dancing dress she wore
Blame it on mama and the songs she loved to sing
Iâm not from Louisiana but that donât mean a thing
Donât come from Alabama or hail from Tennessee
Just blame it on mama she sang (she sang she sang) the country into me
Iâm a coal minerâs daughter
lovin that preacherâs son
I have walked the streets of Laredo
Stared down the barrel of a law mans gun
Iâve grown roots and Iâve got ties
To places Iâve never been
And when I sing those songs it takes me
Right back home again
Blame it on mama and the songs she loved to sing
Iâm not from Louisiana but that donât mean a thing
Donât come from Alabama or hail from Tennessee
Just blame it on mama she sang (she sang she sang)the country into me
The country into me
