She sings a lullaby
Kisses me goodnight for the last time
Daddy used to be her main man
But he's driven her insane and she's headed for the mainland
And Mama cries her eyes out
It wasn't always easy
Turn the kitchen light out
Daddy's upstairs sleeping
And she's broken, battered
Mama cry, Mama cry
Her thoughts are scattered
And Mama sigh, it just don't matter
Mama cries her eyes out
I can't believe she's leaving
She can't change her mind now, no no
She can't recall her reasons
Why she's broken, battered
Mama cry, Mama cry
Her thoughts are scattered
And Mama sigh, it just don't matter
No, it just don't matter
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, Mama cries
Oh oh oh, dry your eyes
Oh oh oh, Mama cries
