Mercy On My Mama

My mama took me to the train
Don't know when I'll be home again
I got my heart on my sleeve
Getting out of here
Even though I'm gonna miss her so

The wind is calling my name
I'm leaving on that southbound train
And as it pulled away
I could hear her say

Lord have some mercy on my baby
Give her shelter whenever there's a storm
And as well as I know my baby
I know there will be another stormy night

The leaves are changing one by one
Orange and soon they're all gone
I let her know I'm fine
In letters that I write

Lord have some mercy on my mama
Give her shelter whenever there's a storm
And as well as I know my mama
I know there will be another stormy night

Being far away
Ain't always easy
Going where my journey takes me
I got my own
Dreams to roam
Someday they'll lead home

Lord have some mercy on my mama
Give her shelter whenever there's a storm
And as well as I know my mama
I know there will be

Lord have some mercy on my mama
Give her shelter whenever there's a storm
And as well as I know my mama
I know there will be another stormy night
