"Mama, Take Me Home", sometimes "Mama Take Me Home", is a song by Swedishdance group Rednex. It has been released in 2006 through M&L Records as the first single of their independently released third studio album The Cotton Eye Joe Show. The song marks the first release with Annika Ljungberg, who rejoined the band.
After the group's previous single release, the 2002 Remix of Cotton Eye Joe and their first greatest hits compilation The Best of the West in 2002, Rednex returned in 2006 with new material, the song "Mama, Take Me Home". The song also marks the first release with Annika Ljungberg, who rejoined the band.
Composition
In contrast of their previous releases, which were a mixture of dance/techno with country elements, and pop ballads, "Mama, Take Me Home" is a more classical country song with a softer beat, similar to their previous release "Riding Alone". The song is completely unrelated to the 1970s country song Mama Take Me Home by country singer George Jones.
Commercial performance
"Mama, Take Me Home" was released and entered into the Melodifestivalen (Music Festival) in Gothenburg, Sweden.
