Oh, tell me mama

Who's that while ago?

Oh, tell me mama

Who's that while ago?

Yes, when I come in

Who went out that back door?

Now don't come here mama

I'm gonna start a ragin' stand

You been out boogie-woogie'n

There's somethin' I don't understand

I want you to tell me mama

Who's that while ago?

Yes, when I come in

Who went out that back door?

Now this is somethin'

I never seen before

A man is gettin' my money

Always slammin' my back door

I want you to tell me mama

Who's that while ago?

Yes, when I came in

Who went out that back door?

Oh, I had to wanna kneel down

You couldn't give the truth

His hat in his hand

And his overcoat too

I want you to tell me mama

Why can't you be true?

Yes, when I came in

Who went out that back door?

He came by me runnin'

Smellin' like a whiskey can

My hat in his hand

And my overcoat too

I want you to tell me mama

Who's that while ago?

Yes, when I came in

Who went out that back door?
