Every Mother's Son Songtext
von J Mascis

Got a little Skynyrd tune
I worked up for it today

I′ve been riding a winning horse
For a long, long time
Sometimes I wonder
Is this the end of the line?

No man should take advantage
Of who they are
No man has got it made
If he thinks he does, he's wrong

Every mother′s son
Better hear what I'm saying
Every mother's son
Rise and fall some days

Seen it happen so many times
So many times before
Some man′s got so much money
He doesn′t worry no more


Or he's got such a pretty woman
That′ll treat him fine
My friends been a fool
It happens every time

Every mother's son
Better hear what I′m saying
Every mother's son oh
Will rise and fall one day

I′m not tryin' to preach to no one
To no one at all
Seen so many my good friends
Just rise to fall

'Cause they got so much money
Or a woman so fine
My friends have all been fools
It happens every time, everytime

Every mother′s son
Better hear what I′m saying
Every mother's son, no
Rise and fall one day
What I say?


Every mother′s son
Better hear what I'm saying
Every mother′s son, oh
Rise and fall one day
