    Hey-hey, mama
    I dream about you night and day
    Hey-hey, mama
    I dream about you night and day
    I'm gon' take you home with me
    And do my best to make you stay

    I will treat you nice an kind
    Handle you just like a little toy
    I will treat you nice an kind, mama
    Handle you just like a little toy
    I will get anything you want, mama
    If I can be yo' flunky boy

    Sweet, sweet mama
    You can make a fool outta me
    Sweet, sweet mama
    You can make a fool outta me
    You can put rocks in my pillow
    And salt in my tea

    (harmonica & instrumental)

    'Blow that thing, boy, blow it!'

    You don't have to cook me no chicken
    Just plain old neckbones will do
    You don't have to cook no chicken, mama
    Just plain old neckbones will do
    I'm gon' buy some black-eyed peas
    Just to try to get along with you

    You don't have to be sweet
    And kind to me all the time
    You don't have to be sweet, mama
    And kind to me all the time
    Just treat me nice an kind, mama
    And you will satisfy my mind.
