A versão mais conhecida foi gravada por Etta James em 1967, embora a canção tenha sido escrita por Clarence Carter, Marcus Daniel e Wilbur Terrell.
A primeira gravação da música ocorreu em 1966, feita por Clarence Carter sob o título “Tell Daddy”.
Em algumas gravações, apenas Clarence Carter recebe crédito como compositor, embora a autoria seja compartilhada.
A mudança de título de “Tell Daddy” para “Tell Mama” reflete a adaptação da obra para a interpretação de Etta James.
