Hey Mama Life Lyrics by Ray Thomas

From Mighty Oaks

0

Hey, hey mama life is a lonely time
For a man who drinks his whiskey by the jar
Now I do believe the life I lead
Won't get me very far
I was once told the streets were paved in gold
Now I know them for what they are
Hey, hey mama life has a sweeter sound
For a man who lives his life for his dream
Yet he must be aware there are those who care
And those who would bring him down
Separate trust from your cut and thrust
The truth can still be found
For the crossroads of your life
Will lead you almost anywhere
You'll see tomorrow
Your castles in the air
They were never really there
Take the pride from a man
You're left without a meaning
Take the wings from a bird, how can it fly
Give him hope, give him trust and a little understanding
Give him back his pride, you'll be satisfied
Hey, hey mama life is a lonely time
For a man who drinks his whiskey by the jar
Now I do believe the life I lead
It won't get me very far
I was once told the streets, they were paved in gold
Now I know them for what they are
