A Year Ago Today
A year ago today, I was stood beside you outside the courtroom
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
You've already served all that you deserved too many lifetimes over
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
And money always flowed from the pockets of your clothes to the hands of another
Copper, silver, gold
A greater love was sold down the Craig Matty River
He promised you the world
You let your hair unfold right down his shoulders
He promised you the world
And now that same old world is just getting smaller
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful with your love
I told you all the time
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful who you love
I told you all the time
A year ago today, I was stood beside you outside the courtroom
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
And I watched, as your pride from your nose and eyes, came out a flowing
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful with your love
I told you all the time
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful who you love
I told you all the time
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful with your love
I told you all the time
Mama
Love
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
You've already served all that you deserved too many lifetimes over
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
And money always flowed from the pockets of your clothes to the hands of another
Copper, silver, gold
A greater love was sold down the Craig Matty River
He promised you the world
You let your hair unfold right down his shoulders
He promised you the world
And now that same old world is just getting smaller
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful with your love
I told you all the time
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful who you love
I told you all the time
A year ago today, I was stood beside you outside the courtroom
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
And I watched, as your pride from your nose and eyes, came out a flowing
And when they called your name
You thought I'd be ashamed but I stood taller
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful with your love
I told you all the time
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful who you love
I told you all the time
Oh Mama, I told you all the time
Please be careful with your love
I told you all the time
Mama
Love
