My mama said, she told me: "Son"
You better not run away today
Daddy came he looked inside
Despite a fortune downward face
Despite his simple point of view
A cold pattern this it is
Keep the fall away from you
Feel for another state
Can't feel my feet, I walk away
Can't shake my hands but I'd like to say
My mouth it moves but I do not speak
My legs are tired and my knees are weak
It simply has to be this way
Your daddy died the other week
The lamp blew away from him
His face it looked oh so weak
Can't feel my feet, I walk away
Can't shake my hands but I'd like to say
My mouth it moves but I do not speak
My legs are tired and my knees are weak
One day when the sun comes up
You know a city's going to rise up from the sea
One day when the sun comes down
I'm going to ride out to that city
Aah aah ah aha, aah aah ah aha
Aah aah ah aha, aah aah ah aha
