Let my mother live til I get grown
Don't leave me in a God-forsaken world all alone
Let my mother live til I get grown
I was just a boy when my daddy died
He got killed down in the mine in 1945
I remember people talkin' while my momma cried
I was just a boy when my daddy died
Let my mother live til I get grown
Let my mother live til I get grown
Don't leave me in a God-forsaken world all alone
Let my mother live til I get grown
The Lord puts nothing on you that you can't bear
When the
burdens that you carry just don't seem fair
Heartaches and misery are everywhere
The Lord puts nothing on you that you can't bear
Let my mother live til I get grown
Let my mother live til I get grown
Don't leave me in the God-forsaken world all alone
Let my mother live
Let my mother live
Let my mother live til I get grown
