When I was six or seven Mama tucked me in With a lullabye And it made my eyes Open wide again I'd lie awake and wonder Why a boy named Billy Joe Jumped off the Tallahatchee Bridge To the river far below (Chorus) Blame it on Mama and the songs she loved to sing I'm not from Louisiana, but that don't mean a thing Don't come from Alabama or hail from Tennessee Just blame it on Mama She sang the country into me I just loved to listen As she sang those story songs 'Bout a Coat of Many Colors Or a girl named Delta Dawn When The Lights Went Out In Georgia I would beg for just one more All about Fancy and the pretty red satin Dancing dress she wore (Repeat Chorus) I'm a Coal Miner's Daughter Lovin' that preacher's son I've walked the Streets of Laredo Stared down the barrel of a lawman's gun I've grown roots and I've got ties To places I've never been And when I sing those songs it takes me Right back home again (Repeat Chorus) The country into me, yeah
