C            Am             
Oh! my mama, she gave me these 
                Em          G
feathered breaths
C            Am                  
Oh! my mama, she told me, "Use 
     Em                G
your voice, my little bird!"
C                                 
She said "sing! sing! sing! sing! 
Am          Em        G
sing! sing! melodies"
C                             
And she sang! sang! sang! sang! 
    Am          Em        G
sang! those melodies
C            Am                  
Oh! my mama, she did give me 
           Em          G
fancy feet I'll be dancin' on
C                         Am     
And I'll tap, tap, tap my toes 
                     Em          G
into those creaking floor boards

C            Am                  
Oh! My mama she took my little 
   Em          G
hand and held on tight
C            Am                  
All the mamas give the waters of 
      Em          G
their wells!
C            Am                  
All the mamas give the babies 
       Em          G
this very dirt we're walking on
C            Am             
Oh! My mama, she gave me these 
             Em          G
feathered breaths

 feathered breaths too
