Mama Don’t Weep
Colin Jones (Singer)
My truth sits at the bottom
The bottom of a wishing well
And I've thrown in all my dollars
Thinking it'd save me from hell
Makes me wonder where I'd be if I should die
I dream of thunder and lightning
The horses hooves roll on
And everybody's moving
To the lords triumphant song
Makes me wonder where I'd be if I should die
Mama don't you weep for me
Papa can't you see
This bed you set for me
Is not a place I can keep
No saint in my windows
No beads in my hands
But Mary keeps on weeping
'Cause I won't say no hails today
Makes me wonder where I'd be if I should die
Mama don't you weep for me
Papa can't you see
This bed you set for me
Is not a place I can keep
