I Can See Everybody's Mother Songtext
von The Blind Boys of Alabama

I can see everybody′s mother (oh yeah)
Lord, I can't see mine
I can see e-everybody′s mother
Lord (Lord), I can't see mine
Oh yeah (oh yeah), yeah, yeah

Simple dead has come along (oh yeah)
Taking my darling mother
Taking my mother home
I can see e-everybody's mother (oh yeah)
Lord, I can′t see mine
I wonder, can I get a witness here?


I remember kneeling
Down by my mother′s side
I was nothing but a little boy
When my mother died

But I got to thinking
That I was losing
I was losing my only friend
Oh, how much to you (oh yeah), yeah, yeah

It almost, almost broke my heart, yeah (oh yeah), yeah, yeah
To see my darling mother
My mother had depart

I can see e-everybody's mother (oh yeah)
Can′t see mine
Can't see mine
