Saw My Mama Cryin' Songtext
von Walter Trout

I saw my mama cryin′
I heard her weepin' morn
I saw my mama cryin′
And I heard her weepin' morn
And I reached right out and helped her
So she would not feel so alone

I saw my mama struggle
But she never did complain
I saw my mama struggle
But she never did complain
No, no-oh
When she thought I wasn't lookin′
You know her face was filled with pain
Lord


One day I found my mama
Standing in the backyard cryin′
I asked her what was wrong
She said she was getting tired of tryin'
Then she said, don′t worry son,
It's just a passin′ phase
She dried her eyes and smiled at me, said
It's bound to be some better days

I saw my mama cryin′
I heard her weepin' morn
Yes I did
And I reached right out and helped her
So she would not be so all alone
Lone, lone, lone

I saw her gettin' older
As we move from place to place
I saw mama gettin′ older
As we move from place to place
And when death came ′round and took her
I saw a peaceful smile upon her face
Yes I did, yes I did

I saw my mama cryin'
Lord, I saw my mama cryin′
I saw my Mama cryin'
I was just a Boy
And I saw her cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
