Music Making Mama From Memphis
Written and Recorded by Hank Snow
 
C
Listen to a story about a gal I know

She's my music making mama I'm her hillbilly beau
F
She's sweeter than the music when she tickles the strings
C
Sweeter than the flowers down in New Orleans
         G7                                   C
She's my music making mama from Memphis Tennessee


She'll play a little rhythm do the boogie up right

The Tennessee polka maybe blues in the night
F
Everybody travels from near and far
C
To hear her when she swings it on her old guitar
         G7                                   C
She's my music making mama from Memphis Tennessee


You can hear her in the evening when the sun sinks low

A singing and a picking on her old banjo
F
You gotta jive when the words roll out of her mouth
C
Everybody's calling her the Queen of the South
         G7                                     C
She's my fiddle playing mama from Memphis Tennessee


You gotta start dancing when she gets in the groove

Plays the big bass fiddle or she'll yodel the blues
F
She plays a down beat an off beat any old beat
C
A breakdown a hoedown and does it up neat
         G7                                   C
She's my bass picking baby from Memphis Tennessee


You'll know when my baby is a coming to town

All the jive jumping jitterbugs they gather around
F
They keep yelling to my Queenie now honey let's go
C
My baby starts a picking and a picking down low
         G7                             C
My music making mama from Memphis Tennessee


She'll play a little rhythm do the boogie up right

The Tennessee polka maybe blues in the night
F
Everybody travels from near and far
C
To hear her when she picks it on her old guitar
         G7                                   C
She's my music making mama from Memphis Tennessee
