Life Lyrics

Life lyrics

(Toussaint)







Mother, mother, just look what they done, done to your son



Father, Father, just look what they done, done to your son



Look 'e here, Mother, Mother







I have felt the mark of ten thousand teeth



I done seen my body lying limply at my feet



As I've seen my soul creeping out my chest



Out of my head towards the east, I've been victimed by the west







Mother, mother, just look what they done, done to your son



But it ain't so bad, I've been drinking while they're just having fun



Father, Father, look what they done, done to your son



Hey, Mother, Mother







I've seen visions of dol[hins dancing in my head



But I'm not gonna worry, might wake up in the morning, dead



But if I die, stoned before I wake



Lord grant me one last wish, please unveil my fate







Mother, mother, look what they done, done to your son



But it ain't so bad, I've been drinking while they're just having fun



Father, Father, look what they done, done to your son



Look'e here, Mother, Mother











Mother, mother, look what they done, done to your son



I didn't know what I was told, 



About the work of the Devil and now I know



Father, Father, look what they done, done to your son



I didn't know what I was told, 



About the work of the Devil and now I know



Mother, mother, look what they done, done to your son



I didn't know what I was told, 



About the work of the Devil and now I know



Father, Father, look what they done, done to your son



I didn't know what I was told, 



About the work of the Devil and now I know
