Mother of a Man (Live) [1993 Webster Hall, NYC, NY] Songtext
von Mick Jagger

See looka here, wanna see my gun
It′s an Uzi and it packs a lot of punch
It sure is loud, I got it fixed
You wanna feel, you wanna touch this little bitch

I wanna testify
It's a crazy world out there
I wanna tell ya now
That it′s a brutal world out there

I'm just a mother of a man
I've got the stopper in my hand
Judge and jury, help me please
Ain′t gonna get down on my knees
Oh no, God help me now

You know my wife, she don′t feel safe
Since we had a lot of trouble near our place
These kids are poor, I know it's hard
But why′d they have to do it in their own backyard


I wanna testify
That it's a crazy world out there
I don′t have to tell you
It's a barbaric world out there

I′m just a mother of a man
I wanna take the witness stand
Judge and jury, help me please
The sirens sound, the streets all bleed

I'm just a mother of a man
Just a mother of a man
Oh yeah, God help me now

I wanna testify
That it's a crazy, crazy, crazy world out there
I wanna tell ya now
That it′s a barbaric world out there

I′m just a mother of a man
I wanna take the witness stand
Judge and jury help me please
The sirens cry, the streets all bleed

I'm just a mother of a man
Here I stand, here I stand
I′m just a mother of a man
Yeah, God help me now
