D7 G
[Chorus]
G
Hey mamma, come get your baby
D7 G
My cajun baby, I'm sad and I'm blue
G
Hey mamma, come get your baby
D7 G
My cajun baby, I'm lonely for you
[Verse 1]
G D7
In south Louisiana where the stars shine so bright
G
The soft breezes blow in the pale of the night
D7
My darlin' has left me in such misery
G
I pray that she'll hear me while I sing this plea
[Chorus]
G
Hey mamma, come get your baby
D7 G
My cajun baby, I'm sad and I'm blue
G
Hey mamma, come get your baby
D7 G
My cajun baby, I'm lonely for you
[Intrumental Bridge]
D7 G
[Verse 2]
G D7
I'll always love you til my dyin' day
G
The pain in my heart just won't go away
D7
Til I can hold you again in my arms
G
And thrill to be near you with all of your charms
[Verse 3]
G D7
I think of the times that we've had in the past
G
How you once loved me, oh why didn't it last
D7
My heart was broken down in Big Mamou
G
The night that I danced the last waltz with you
[Chorus]
G
Hey mamma, come get your baby
D7 G
My cajun baby, I'm sad and I'm blue
G
Hey mamma, come get your baby
D7 G
My cajun baby, I'm lonely for you
