Lyrics

Well oh, my mama, she says to me
Son I've only done my best
Spread your wings
For now you are free
It's time for your mama to rest
(It's time for your mama to rest)

And oh, my lady, she says to me
I'm no longer yours to claim
Breaks my heart that you're leavin again
I'm gonna try not to complain
(I'm gonna try not to complain)

But I am no one to tie
To the faith that you provide
Close your eyes and I'll be on my weary way
Ain't nothin you can say to make your poor boy stay
I'm goin' back to the San Francisco bay
(I'm goin' back to the San Francisco bay)

Well, she speaks again
Now softly
"I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Two good eyes, you still cannot see
I'm the gal who made you strong"
(I am the gal who made you strong)

I remember my drunken daddy, he said to me
You know your mama will never confess
But in your young eyes
There's so much of me
Your papa is runnin out of breath
(Your papa is runnin out of breath)

And oh my sister, she says to me
When will you ever change?
Breaks my heart that you're drinking again
Drinking only brings you pain
(Drinking only brings you pain)

Well, she speaks again
Now softly
"I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Two good eyes, you still cannot see
I'm the gal who made you strong"
(I am the gal who made you strong)
