Lyrics

So cold in China, birds can't hardly sing So cold in China, eeee, birds can't hardly sing You didn't make me mad till you broke my diamond ring Hey, mama, won't be bad no more Take me, mama, won't be bad no more You can get my lovin' if you let that old black snake go Black snake crawlin', crawlin' in my room Black snake crawlin', crawlin' in my room Some high brown woman better come and get this here black snake soon Hey, mama, what have I said and done? Hey, mama, what have I said and done? Some joker your lover, says it's sure gonna be my ruin Hey, cryin', mama, papa, says, I do love, I do, doub, do doub, do love you Cryin', eeeee, your daddy do love you You's a high-steppin' mama and I don't care what you do I was a little boy, on my way to school Was a little boy, ooh, on my way to school Met a high brown woman and she broke my mammy's rule Mama say I'm reckless, Daddy say I'm young and wild Mama say I'm reckless, ooh, Daddy say I'm young and wild "Reason he's so reckless, he's my baby child"
