Papa's faith is people
|
Mama she believes in cleaning
|
Papa's faith is in people
|
Mama she's always cleaning
|
Papa brought home the sugar
|
Mama taught me the deeper meaning
|
She don't like my kick pleat skirt
|
She don't like my eyelids painted green
|
She don't like me staying up late
|
In my high-heeled shoes
|
Living for that Rock'n'Roll dancing scene
|
Papa says "Leave the girl alone, Mother
|
She's looking like a Movie Queen"
|
|
Mama thinks she spoilt me
|
Papa knows somehow he set me free
|
Mama thinks she spoilt me rotten
|
She blames herself
|
But papa he blesses me
|
It's a rough road to travel
|
Mama let go now
|
It's always called for me
|
Sometimes I get that feeling
|
And I want to settle
|
And raise a child up with somebody
|
I get that strong longing
|
And I want to settle
|
And raise a child up with somebody
|
But it passes like the summer
|
I'm a wild seed again
|
Let the wind carry me
|

Let The Wind Carry Me
