Mama

Mama don't let your babies grow up to be

Oh
Mama tell me
Imma see the morning sun
Tonight
I'm down on my knees
Lookin down a smokin' gun

And I know
I'm running out of time
Oh
Mama help me
Won't you help me walk the line

Torn up poster in my hand
Says I'm a wanted man
Getting used to life on the road

Heavy bounty on my head
They say they want me dead
So I'm out here wondering alone

And I'm holding on for dear life

Sat on saddle
Holding reigns
Ride through the dust and rain
Will I ever find my way home

Oh
Mama tell me
Imma see the morning sun
Tonight
I'm down on my knees
Lookin down a smokin' gun

And I know
I'm running out of time
Oh
Mama help me
Won't you help me walk the line

Trust the stars to guide you home
Son you're a rolling stone
Don't let them break your stride

Texas to Tennessee
Six strings living on a dream
So clear when I close my eyes

Oh Mama she was right when she said I would never change

So Imma
Keep heading east while I'm so lonesome on the range

Oh
Mama tell me
Imma see the morning sun
Tonight
I'm down on my knees
Lookin down a smokin' gun

And I know
I'm running out of time
Oh
Mama help me
Won't you help me walk the line
