Mother

Mother Coal
Was always by my side
Mother Coal
Taught me how to read and write
Showed me I should speak my mind
Really made me think
Rather straight and strict than kind
But we've always had to eat and drink

Mother mother
Rough hands
Mother mother strong
Mother always helps her friends
She knows before she'd done them wrong

Mother Blood
Claims herself to be shy
But claims all those men that she
With one sweet smile could buy
She likes the control in bed
Well her love isn't free
And they keep payin' more and more
To find her on her knees

Oh poor mother, yes she knows
That those are evil men
Well in the end she gets her rose
And she does it all again

Coal
Blood
Corn
Mother folds her hands
And we've been sold

Mother Corn
Is afraid of things to change
Of women kissing
Of other gods and people lookin' strange
But as she's always too polite
For disagreeing words
She's got some small boys by her side
Who'll put their hands in dirt

And she would bake for uniforms
And suited up grey guys
She likes to talk 'bout doin' right or wrong
She thinks the neighbors need advice

Coal
Blood
Corn
Mother folds her hands
And we've
Coal
Blood
Corn
Mother folds her hands
And we've
Mother folds her hands
And we've been sold
