Livin' In Heat

My mama was born on a sway-backed mule
Way down on a farm in Georgia
Where people said, «Girl you got to work all day
'Cause we can’t afford to room and board you»
My mama grew up with a load on her back
A lovin' in her heart for someone
She sang about the dream that she held in her heart
'Cause for so long she didn’t have one
When mama went away she took everything
She took everything that we cared for
And when we asked her why she had no answer
Sh didn’t know why or wherefore
All sh knew was she had love
Lovin' in her heart for someone
Now she’s goin' away to find that man
Got to bring home her loved one
Where’s my baby
Now where you been so long
Life ain’t livin' without you
I’m tired of just dreamin' about you
(Heat, heat) Heat, wow, I said
(Heat, heat) Heat, wow, just livin' in heat mama, wow
Where’s my baby
I said where you been so long
Life ain’t livin' without you
I’m tired of just dreamin' about you
(Heat, heat) Heat, wow, I just can’t say it enough
(Heat, heat) Oh, I’m livin' in heat, yeah wow
(Heat, heat, heat, heat, heat)
