lyrics

Call Your Mama

The obituary page
Is a mess today
Jane Russell, Suze Rotolo
Frankie Buckles (for example)
What can I say
But goodbye to WWI
Say goodbye to that son of a son

Why am I awake
I never knew them
All that vague bad fortune
Why should it make me care – make me cry
I never knew them
Still I miss them still
Already
Already

Already its my turn
So I sit up and learn
Ya know when I get drunk
I call my Brother
Cause I know that he’s been drinkin’ too
And when I get hungry
I look to the South
And when I’m lonely
I shut my mouth
I look I look to the phone
It leaves me alone

And when I really feel like dyin’
I call my Mama
Yea when I really really feel like dyin’
I call my Mama
Cause ya know she really feels like dyin’ too
Yes she do
Yes she do
Yes she do
What else can she do for you
