Lyrics

Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
I don't need an umbrella
To cover my head when it rains
I don't need a sheet to cover my bed
When I fall asleep, you see
I'm a guy that's not alive inside
I've died twenty times since I was five
Ever since I killed my baby sister, Jane
I've been in a mental hospital for the insane
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
Mommy
When it's my time to die
I know no one's gonna cry
And when they bury me six feet below
That's when folks will never know
That my sister Jane fell
And I promised my mother never to tell
We had no father to watch over a family of nine
We knew that folks would separate us
'Cause mama was blind
Us kids knew we could never replace
Mama's face
Life to me is a mystery
Full of fear and curiosity
It's a clock that doesn't tick
It's a world without music
It's a nightmare which has no end
It's car fare to the devil's den
And if I had to do it all over again
I wouldn't hesitate
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Here comes the doctor
To remind me it's visiting day
Must convince him that I'm crazy
So my family will stay away
Oh, Lord, teach me how to cry
Before I die
Oh, Lord, teach me how to cry
Before I die
Oh, Lord, teach me how to cry
Before, before I die, yeah
Gotta know, gotta know how it feels, yeah
When you can feel this way deep inside, yeah
Hey, hey, hey
Don't need no umbrella, yeah
To cover my head when it rains, yeah
Don't need a sheet to cover my bed, yeah
When I fall asleep, yeah
Hey, hey, hey
