Sweet Mama Blue Lyrics - Roy Orbison

I know a place in New Orleans 

They call "The Castle of Kings and Queens" 

Where an old sweet black woman sings 

And plays piano like a dream 

She puts out all her beautiful heart and soul for you 

Sweet mama blue 

Sweet mama blue will only sing about the truth 

And it will get to you 

Sweet mama blue will sing of love as only she can do 

Sweet mama blue

One night I stayed past closing time 

"Sweet mama blue my troubled mind" 

She sang the night away for me 

She made me see what I couldnt see 

That only by loving life will all your dreams come true 

Sweet mama blue 

Sweet mama blue will only sing about the truth 

And it will get to you 

Sweet mama blue will sing of love as only she can do 

Sweet mama blue 

Sweet mama blue 

They say shes gone from misery 

But she still lives in my memory 

I still can see her smile and say 

"Ill bet you make it all the way" 

If you will try the Lord will surely see you through
