Slow Walking Mama

Mathis James "Jimmy" Reed (September 6, 1925 – August 29, 1976) was an American blues musician and songwriter, notable for bringing his distinctive style of blues to mainstream audiences. Reed was a major player in the field of electric blues, as opposed to the more acoustic-based sound of many of his contemporaries. His lazy, slack-jawed singing, piercing harmonica and hypnotic guitar patterns were one of the blues' most easily identifiable sounds in the 1950s and 1960s, and had a significant impact on many rock and roll artists who followed, such as Elvis Presley, Billy Gibbons and the Rolling Stones. more »

Slow walkin' mama, you been makin' a fool of me
Slow walkin' mama, you been makin' a fool out of me
Takin' all of my money, honey, given it to your "used to be"

No more, honey I can tell ya, no more
No more, Jimmy here to tell you, no more
Got too many horses in your stall, honey, oh yes, somebody got to go

When it come to your woman, man, man, you don't even have a friend
When it come down to your woman, I'm here to tell you, you ain't got a friend
There is nothin' worser than a cacklin' rooster, oh yeah, a crowin' hen
