about

The first time the Midnight Sons have used curse words. Apologies to all our parents and younger listeners.

lyrics

Oh my mother, I wish you could see them now
Once in a while
One with a fever and the other with one bad eye
She plays a violin, he raises hell in the yard
And you would have scolded him too

Oh my mother, I wish I was there when you died
I was raising hell, raising shackles, one at a time
My hair is shorter, I don't steal shit, I don't get the itch
Grand theft auto gets shortened if you will snitch

Oh my mother, (you) weren't there when we drove away
Oh my mother, I helped put you in the grave (ay-ay-ay)
I guess the best that I can do
Is "Reserved" in the front right pew
A pillbox hat and a faded picture of you
A pillbox hat and a faded picture of you

Oh my mother I wish you could see them now
once in a while
One with a fever and the other with one bad eye
She plays harmonica, he raises hell in the yard
And you would have scolded him too
