Come on baby let me take your troubles away Some mean old mama’s got your head all in a horrible way Still for all your cryin’ and all your pain You’re just the sweetest little woman that I’ve seen in my day So come on pretty mama let me take your troubles away
I’ve heard you wake up cryin’ from the evils lyin’ under our bed You say there’s no use tryin’ to protect you from the danger and dread Though this world is made of fearsome beasts that bark and bite We were born to put these creatures through one hell of a fight May we feast upon the flesh of any fever that befalls you tonight
Soon her sides will split wide open We shall feast when darkness falls Sing until our jaws are broken Heed the blackened water’s call
Lay down your burdens don’t you let them drag you into the ground I know you’re hurtin’ but there’s plenty of your pain to go ‘round Lord knows that everybody’s got a cross to bear And I see no use in tryin’ to contrast and compare There’s always someone being slaughtered by a bigger stack of splinters somewhere
If a day should break in anger Patience weak and temper strong Put our able hands to labor We will work through what went wrongTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
