Mother

This is Coco and the Butterfields
Please stream Gentlemen of few
Let's do this
(Hey hey)
(Coco)

Well come my Father
Come my Brother
Come my Sister too
Come down to the riverbank and tell me of your blues
We'll have a talk, we'll have a walk
And sometimes we'll sit too
But there's no place I'm making space to sit down next to you

Tell me have you any Silver?
Or have you any Gold?
Have you any news to tell whether new or old
I say as much and then thats enough
Because this day is getting cold
I'm sure we'll spend another time so this one can be told

(Wow) (Ohhhhhhh)
Come my Father (oooohhhhh)
Come my Brother (oooooohhhhh)
Come my Sister too (oooohhhhh) (come on, come on, come on)
Tell me of your blues

And Mother can you hear me
I'm stomping down the stairs
I'm going to the river bank to meet the others there
And Yooooouuuu say I'm not prepared
You go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on

Ohhhhhhh
Come my Father (oooohhhhh)
Come my Brother (oooooohhhhh)
Come my Sister too (oooohhhhh) (come on, come on, come on)
Tell me of your blues

Oh to join you by the riverbank is what I'd love to do
But I'm stuck here making sense of what was left before you flew
To sing and dance by riverbank sounds mighty bloody fun
But who'll be rinsing clothing through when all of you are done

So out you go, out you run, I won't begrudge you of your fun
Although I may be here all day I'm thinking of you on your way
Take your towel and your shoes and tell the river of your blues
Sing and dance with all the others
Pass my love on to your brothers

Ohhhhhhh
Come my Father (oooohhhhh)
Come my Brother (oooooohhhhh)
Come my Sister too (oooohhhhh) (come on, come on, come on)
Tell me of your

Ahhhhhhhh
Come my Father (oooohhhhh)
Come my Brother (oooooohhhhh)
Come my Sister too (oooohhhhh) (come on, come on, come on)
Tell me of your

Ahhhhhhh
Come my Father (oooohhhhh)
Come my Brother (oooooohhhhh)
Come my Sister too (oooohhhhh) (come on, come on, come on)
Tell me of your

Ahhhhhhh
Come my Father (oooohhhhh)
Come my Brother (oooooohhhhh)
Come my Sister too (oooohhhhh) (come on,come on,come on)
Tell me of your blues
