Dear Mama

Mama save me

Oh mama please

Don't let father get ahold of me

He's been drinking

Another bottle gone

Lord knows I didn't do no wrong

I know he hurts you

See it in your eyes

Every day we fear for our lives

And you pray

For change

From god above

You pray for love

And you plead

To be free

With the Devil below

You'd give your soul

A few months later

I can recall

What was the worst night

Of them all

My father came home

Drunk as can be

I remember

What you said to me

Go fetch your brother

Stay out of sight

This is all

Gonna to end tonight

And you pray

For change

From god above

You pray for love

And you plead

To be free

With the Devil below

You gave your soul

You did your damnedest

To raise us right

I wish that you were here tonight

I'm having bad dreams

Where I'm my father

I have my own kid but I'm a monster

I started drinking

After all I've seen

My wife and kid need more from me

So I pray

For change

From God above

I pray for love

And I plead

To be free

With the Devil below

I'd give my soul

So I pray

For change

From God above

I pray for love

And I plead

To be free

With the Devil below

I'd give my soul
