| Sometimes I feel so weary
|
| Traveling through life all alone
|
| Sometimes I feel so weary
|
| Traveling through life all alone
|
| It’s a long, long journey
|
| And I can’t make it on my own
|
| There’s seven million people
|
| Living right here in this town
|
| There’s seven million people
|
| Living right here in this town
|
| I don’t need but one person
|
| So baby, why won’t you please stay around
|
| When the sun turns blue
|
| And the moon shines bright all day
|
| When the sun’s turns blue
|
| And the moon shines bright all day
|
| That’s the day, sweet mama
|
| I’ll let you run away
|
| When the rivers stop flowing
|
| And the trees lay down and die
|
| I said, when the rivers stop flowing
|
| And the trees lay down and die
|
| When the stars stop shining
|
| Then I’ll say my love’s goodbye
|
| Now if I’ve been misbehaving
|
| I promise you I’ll stop
|
| But if you quit me, mama
|
| I swear I’ll blow my top
|
| It’s a long, long journey
|
| But I’ll make it before I’m blue
|
| This world can’t throw me
|
| Mama, if I still have you |
