Mama You Sweet Lyrics - Lucinda Williams

I love you, Mama you sweet 

I love you, Mama you sweet 

I love you, Mama you sweet 

I love you, Mama you sweet 

I love you, Mama you sweet 

With an ocean in my spirit 

And cracks on my lips 

And scars in my heart 

And this burden on my hips 

Ocean becomes heavy and tries 

To push its way out 

Through these ancient eyes 

And the memories in my mouth

Ocean becomes tears 

That ebb and flow 

Over the lines in my face 

And the pain in my soul 

And pain hits a wall 

And doesn't know which way to go 

And ocean says I'm crying now 

And tells pain to follow 

And pain courses through 

Every vein, every limb 

Trying to find a way out 

Between the secrets in my skin 

And secrets hold on 

Until they finally give in 

And they meet up with ocean 

And tears again 

Photos 

And tears hand me a shovel 

Saying break beneath the crust 

That binds earthly skin 

And buries all the trust 

Somehow trust was caught 

Between the cracks on my lips 

And the scars in my heart 

And this burden on my hips 

I love you, Mama you sweet...
