Tekst piosenki
Mamas put your babies to sleep, story too cruelsome for
them this is. In Junior high she said goodbye to her parents and ran
away with a boy. She left her family warm and kind, all of her friends said
"youre out of your mind". Life of her own she would find, its Monday and shes
gotta grind.
A Job as a waitress she sure was to find, beautiful face,
mind of a child. Boy got her pregnant, Mary-Lou cried," For this I am
too young oh why did you lie" You said "its okay if we do it today", I was
so scared that you would go away. "Despite all the papers been signed, mama take me
back be so kind".
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again.
He promised the moon but wont marry you.
Nothing to do, eating for two, hes goin out with
someone new. Sunshine or rain, its all the same, life isnt gray
oh Mary-Lou.
Mamas do your children still sleep, in the safe of their
cradles so sweet. Story I told you I have foreseen, Your little angel aint
always so clean. Days to come arent easy to see, You can change em but
it isnt free. I see that you dont believe, ooo-oo, but you will see.
