Every Mother's Son

I speak to you. I think you'll
 Understand. You know you've
 Made your son Joseph
 A dangerous man.
 He's gone to town, he's bought himself a gun.
 This could happen to every mother's son.
 I spoke to Joseph.
 His time has come.
 "Vengeance is mine," he said.
 "Come join the fun."
 He looked more like a Judas on the run.
 This could happen to every mother's son.
 Since I spoke to Joseph he's
 Gone into town. He killed
 Six strong men 'fore they
 Shot him down.
 I hate to think it's only just begun.
 This could happen to every mother's son.
 Something to tell you I
 Think you should know.
 You think too fast and you
 Love too slow, you know.
 You needn't feel you're the only one.
 This could happen to every mother's son.
