Mother don't sit
|
Mother don't stand
|
Mother don't send me
|
|
Sister come and lay your head on me,
|
I can see you haven't had any sleep in a long time
|
|
That baby's gonna be so easy on me,
|
Never see his smile
|
Never see his face
|
|
Father said he was gonna give me something,
|
He gave me hate
|
|
Mother don't sit
|
Mother don't stand
|
Mother don't send me
|
|
Brother can't even speak,
|
He's got a tongue and two legs to walk on,
|
And he can't leave
|
Brother is old and gray,
|
Brother is old and gray,
|
Brother is old and gray,
|
And he's only
|
He's only seventeen
|
|
Father said he was gonna give me something,
|
He gave me hate
|
|
Mother don't sit
|
Mother don't stand
|
Mother please don't send me
|
