Mattie Mae, have got'n two dimple in her jaw 

She have got long black curly hair, m-now 

Mattie Mae, have got two dimple in her jaw, now 

She have got long black curly hair, now 

Lord, she's kind-a lean in the waist 

John, an her complexion looks awful fair, now 

Lord, I was standin' around her congregation of people 

Here's the first word I had to say, now 

Lord, I was standin' around her congregation of people, now 

Here's the first word I had to say, now 

I thought a-hug you an kiss you 

A-because you sho' do remind me of Mattie Mae, Maes 

'Play this 'un Brother John, you know how I be alone' 

(Piano, harp & instrumtental) 

'Yeah, yeah, yeah' 

'Come on, go back, you know down, I need sound' 

'You don't wanna bug out-a-here'

Lord, if you want to be my little baby 

My baby, I'll always let you have your way 

Now, if you wants to be Sonny Boy's little baby, yeah 

My baby, I would always let you have yo way, now 

I give you my money an ev'rything 

Because you look exactly like, Mattie Mae, now
