Drop Down Mama
Crimson House's Blues Tale: Unraveling the Depths of 'Drop Down Mama'
Lyrics
I say now
I express now
Drop down, mama
Lower yourself, mama
Let your daddy be
Let your father exist
I know just what you're trying to
I understand your intention
Pull on me
Exert influence on me
But, my mama
However, my mother
Oh, she don't allow me
Oh, she doesn't permit me
To fool around
To engage in frivolous activities
All night long
All through the night
Well, now I may look like I'm crazy
Now, I might appear eccentric
Honey, I do know right from wrong
Honey, but I distinguish right from wrong
Well, now you
When you
See me coming and you put your
Notice my approach and you send your
Man outdoors
Man outside
I ain't no stranger
I'm not unfamiliar
I done been here before
I've been in this situation before
But my mama
But my mother
Oh, she don't allow me
Oh, she doesn't permit me
To fool around
To engage in frivolous activities
All night long
All through the night
Well, babe, I may look like I'm crazy
Well, darling, I might appear eccentric
Honey, I do know right from wrong
Honey, but I distinguish right from wrong
I said, quit scratching on my window
I said, stop making noise at my window
Knocking up on my screen
Knocking on my screen
You know you're a dirty mistreater
You are a dishonest mistreater
I know just what you mean
I understand your intentions
But my mama
But my mother
Oh, she don't allow me
Oh, she doesn't permit me
To fool around
To engage in frivolous activities
Say, all night long
Say, all through the night
All night long
All through the night
All night long
-All night long
