Mama Don't Cry - I Draw Slow
C'mon son you gotta row my heart is all at sea
C'mon wind you gotta blow my baby back to me
Cause he rowed out a boy, came on home a man
I waited night after night feeling half of who I am
Bridge: Oohh Ooohh Oohh, Oohh Ooohh Oohh
C'mon boy you gotta wed now find yourself a girl
Maybe it's all in my head now out there into the world
But I dream of a boat, coming empty as a grave
Coming night after night, coming wave after wave
Bridge and Chorus
Mama don't cry, Mama don't cry, cry - Nobody gonna wipe your eye
Mama don't pray, Mama don't pray, pray - Nobody hears a word you say
Mama don't wait, Mama wait no more - Nobody walking through the door
Mama don't cry, Mama don't cry, cry - Nobody gonna wipe your eye
Bridge
Cmon son you gotta reap now reap what you have sown
Cmon son you gotta sleep now and you can't sleep alone
Well I worked you like a man when you were just a child
Growing cold in the hills getting old before your time
Bridge
Maybe your Daddy was wrong to treat you like a man
Now your Daddy is gone I do the best I can
But you rowed out angry you were churning like a wave
Now I dream of a boat coming empty as a grave
Bridge and Chorus x 2
