Black Country Woman Songtext
von Led Zeppelin

Shall we roll it, Jimmy?
We're rolling on, uh -- what, one? No.
One again.
I'm tryin' to get this aeroplane off.
Nah, leave it, yeah.

Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
You didn't have to tell me that ya love me so
You didn't have to love me, mama, let me go
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
You didn't have to make me a total disgrace
You didn't have to leave me with that beer in my face
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here

Uh, that's alright, it's awful doggone clear


Hey, hey, baby, why you treat me mean
Oh, oh, baby, why you treat me mean
Aw, baby
You didn't have to crucify me like you did
You didn't have to tell me I was just your kid
Hey, hey, mama, why'd you treat me mean
You didn't have to say you'd always be by my side
You didn't have to tell me you'd be my blushin' bride
Hey, hey, mama, why you treat me mean

But that's alright, I know your sisters too
(Aw, yeah)

You didn't have to tell me that ya love me so
You didn't have to leave me, mama, let me go
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you
You didn't have to leave me like a total disgrace
You didn't have to leave me with that beer on my face

Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you
Oh, but that's alright, I'd be the same way too
Oh, yeah-yo, go, man, go

Now, my baby, now, you didn't have to crucify me like you did
You didn't have to tell me I was just your kid
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here


You didn't have to tell me you would be my own
You didn't have to tell me, "Baby, let me go"
Hey, hey, mama, what is wrong with you
Ah, that's alright, I know your sister too
Oh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah, oh
What's the matter with you, mama
