lyrics

Green-headed mama won’t you come round take away the pain
Green-headed mama won’t you come round take away the pain
I got a 3 or 4 dollar bag’ll last me through this achin rain

Got me a rifle for to shoot at John Law when he come
Got me a rifle for to shoot at John Law when he come
Cause I got a green garden and ol Johnny boy want him some

Sundaygotomeetin and I light up a jimmy for the Lord
Sundaygotomeetin and I light up a jimmy for the Lord
And He’ll light one for me when I get to my final reward

Crush up a flower, and you toss out the stems and the seeds
Crush up a flower, and you toss out the stems and the seeds
Put the flower on a paper and you save all that other stuff for feed

Got a green-headed mama, and she burnin for me every night and day
Got a green-headed mama, and she burnin for me every night and day
Oh green-headed mama won’t you come round and take my cares away
Oh green-headed mama won’t you come round and take these blues away
