Sad Music from the 70s

Turn on some sad sad music
From the 70s
Rock me to sleep
Crying like a baby
This is the music
That our mother loved
The Accident took her to Heaven
Soaring like a dove
Now it's just us kids
Half of us are grown
But we're still angry
Shouting at the devil
For leaving us alone

Mom was always dancing
To disco or dusty soul
She called you her baby bird
And called me her foal
Always said I love you
Even if you don't have goals

Holding her hand while she was fading
Said my babies I'm leaving on that
Midnight Train to Georgia
And Mother Mary's
Wearing sequins
Waiting

Turn on some sad sad music
From the 70s
Rock me to sleep
Crying like a baby
This is the music
That our mother loved
The accident took her to Heaven
Soaring like a dove

Do you remember when dad died?
Moved South from the North Shore
Mom said the new neighborhood isn't dangerous
The old one's just a bore
Do you remember when
Mom made all our clothes
Copied all the hottest designers
Said the rich kids will never know

She's not really gone
To say that would leave a hex
She's dancing in the sky
With Mary Magdaline
And Marc Bolan of TRex

Turn on sad sad music
From the 70s
Rock me to sleep
Crying like a baby
This the music
That our mother loved
She's shining down us from Heaven
Like a disco ball
