Oh, Mama - Live

When I was a barmaid,
you were my mead
When I was a brave knight,
you were my steed
When I was so lonesome,
I wanted to cry
You came to me in the night
You cried o Mama, sing me a love song
Pour me some bourbon
Lay me down low
O baby my poor heart is breaking
I feel the ground shaking
right under my feet.
just put me to sleep
When I was a sailor
you were my land
Always receding nowhere to stand
And when I fell over
you were the whale
you picked me on on your tail
You cried o Mama, sing me a love song
Pour me some bourbon
Lay me down low
O baby my poor heart is breaking
I feel the ground shaking
right under my feet.
just put me to sleep
When I was a farmer you were my rain
When I was a young lover
you were my pain
when all the fireflies that we trapped in jars
escaped last night under the stars
You cried, o darling, sing me a love song
pour me some bourbon,
and lay me down low
mm baby, your poor heart is breaking
I feel the ground shaking
right under my feet
oo mama,
sing me a love song
pour me some bourbon
and lay me down low
oo baby, poor heart is breaking
i feel the ground shaking
right under my feet
just put me to sleep
put me to sleep
