lyrics

Mother, how did you know
Exactly what I was going to say?
Mother, you never knew,
You just made it seem that way.
Now I’ve got the keys,
And you’ve got no time,
And I’ll soon be moving away.
Mother, I think you know
Exactly what I’m going to say.

Mother, how did you see
Whatever I did last night?
Mother, you never saw,
You just guessed,
And you guessed right.
You saw the look on my face,
Heard the way that I spoke,
And you took a shot in the dark.
Mother, you’ve always known,
That I would go breaking your heart.

Mother, we’ve got a good deal
That we live on this earth, you andI.
Mother, you’ve had a few years,
You’re strong, and you’re smart, and you’re wise.
But I’m not eighteen, you’re not forty-seven,
And Father is not forty-nine.
Mother, we’re all going to die,
We’ll do it in our due time.
