Mama Don't Cry

C'mon son you gotta row my heart is all at sea
 C'mon wind you gotta blow my baby back to me
 He rowed out a boy, c'mon home a man
 I waited night after night
 Feeling half of who I am
 C'mon son you gotta wed now find yourself a girl
 Maybe it's all in my head now or out there in the world
 I dream of a boat, empty as a grave
 Coming night after night, coming wave after wave
 Mama don't cry mama don't cry, cry
 Nobody gonna wipe your eye
 Mama don't pray mama don't pray, pray
 Nobody hears a word you say
 Mama don't wait mama wait no more
 Nobody walking through the door
 Mama don't cry mama don't cry, cry
 Nobody gonna wipe your eye
 Cmon son you gotta reap now reap what you have sown
 Cmon I gotta sleep now and I can't sleep alone
 I worked you like a man
 You were just a child
 Growing cold in the hills
 Getting old before your time
 Maybe your Daddy was wrong now to treat you like a man
 Now that your Daddy is gone I'm doing the best I can
 But you rowed out angry
 You were churning like a wave and now I dream of a boat
 Coming empty as a grave
