Wake up in the mornin', well-a, With a cup and a pan Wake up in the mornin', well-a, With a cup and a pan Well, you say anything about it, Well-a have trouble out the man. Well, you say anything about it, Well-a have trouble out the man. Oh captain, captain, don'tcha, Well-a, know my name? Oh captain, captain, don'tcha, Well-a, know my name? Well, I used to be the porter, well-a, On the southbound train. Well, I used to be the porter, well-a, On the southbound train. I'm the same grand rascal, well-a, Stole your watch and chain I'm the same grand rascal, well-a, Stole your watch and chain Cryin' ol' Mamie, well-a, Oh Lordy, gal! Cryin' ol' Mamie, well-a, Oh Lordy, gal! Well, Mamie in Meridian, livin' at ease, Well, Mamie in Meridian, livin' at ease, Well, I'm on Parchman, got to work or leave. Well, I'm on Parchman, got to work or leave. I'm gonna holler like, [give a mighty?] good squall I'm gonna holler like, [give a mighty?] good squall I'll call Alberta from the woman's wall. I'll call Alberta from the woman's wall. Cryin' ol' Mamie, well-a, Oh Lordy, gal! Cryin' ol' Mamie, well-a, Oh Lordy, gal! Well, look over yonder, sun done gone, Well, look over yonder, sun done gone, Well, way over yonder, where the western sun. Well, way over yonder, where the western sun. Cryin' ol' Mamie, well-a, Oh Lordy, gal! Cryin' ol' Mamie, well-a, Oh Lordy, gal!
