Hello stranger, now

You sho` do remind me of Mattie Mae, now

Hello stranger, now

You sho` do remind me of Mattie Mae, now

Lord, an I`m just thinkin` about how you quit me

Mama, an the day you walked away, now



Mattie Mae, have got`n two dimple in her jaw

She have got long black curly hair, m-now

Mattie Mae, have got two dimple in her jaw, now

She have got long black curly hair, now

Lord, she`s kind-a lean in the waist

John, an her complexion looks awful fair, now



Lord, I was standin` around her congregation of people

Here`s the first word I had to say, now

Lord, I was standin` around her congregation of people, now

Here`s the first word I had to say, now

I thought a-hug you an kiss you

A-because you sho` do remind me of Mattie Mae, Maes



`Play this `un Brother John, you know how I be alone`



(Piano, harp & instrumtental)



`Yeah, yeah, yeah`



`Come on, go back, you know down, I need sound`

`You don`t wanna bug out-a-here`



(instrumental continues)



Lord, if you want to be my little baby

My baby, I`ll always let you have your way

Now, if you wants to be Sonny Boy`s little baby, yeah

My baby, I would always let you have yo way, now

I give you my money an ev`rything

Because you look exactly like, Mattie Mae, now
