Mama's In Jail
Mama's in jail Can't post bail I wonder how she looks 'Cause I can't tell through the mail Lennon said, "Mother, you had me, but I never had you" No one to lean on So I stand on my own, my how I've grown That's not all true There are others that care But when I'm in trouble I can't call the woman to whom I was bared It's been years since I've seen ya Ma' Sydney's getting older I still don't think it's right that she has to pay the fair of you not being there McCartey said "Don't carry the world upon your shoulders" So when I feel the pain I'll refrain Grown on Beatles Raised right Polite Made in New Orleans Born and raised in Texas Seen most the states before my years of latter Consuming landscapes platter after platter Mama wasnt there, no matter I'm still climbin' the ladder, no mother, no matter
