I love you Mama you sweet I love you Mama you sweet I love you Mama you sweet I love you Mama you sweet I love you Mama you sweet
With an ocean in my spirit And this burden on my hips
Ocean becomes heavy and tries Through these ancient eyes And the memories in my mouth
Over the lines in my face
And doesn't know which way to go And ocean says I'm crying now
Between the secrets in my skin
Until they finally give in And they meet up with ocean
And tears hand me a shovel Saying break beneath the crust
Between the cracks on my lips And the scars in my heart And this burden on my hips
I love you Mama you sweet... More from Lucinda Williams
