Hey Lordy Mama |

I heard you wasn't feeling good |
|
They're spreading 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 |
|
Hanging on his arm", yeah yeah yeah |
|
That old fool's telling 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 you on the town" |
|
They say, "You ain't behind him |
|
And just don't understand |
|
And think that you're a woman |
|
But acting like a man" |
|
Hey Lordy Mama |
|
What you gonna do now |
|
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 this bitter fate |
|
All these years you loved him |
|
And he knows it's true |
|
'Cause what you're wanting for your man |
|
Is what he's wanting, 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 |
