Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed Lyrics - Years Of Refusal - Morrissey

Mama, why did you do it? 

Mama, who drove you to it? 

Was it the pigs in grey suits 

Persecuting you? 

Uncivil servants 

Unconcerned at how they frighten you? 

Life is nothing much to lose 

It's just so lonely here without you 

Mama, why did you do it? 

Mama, who drove you to it?

Spare priggish moneymen 

Who scared the life out of you 

Bailiffs with bad breath 

I will slit their throats for you 

Life is nothing much to lose 

It's just so lonely here without you 

Life is nothing much to lose 

It's just so lonely here without you 

So we're gonna run to you 

We're gonna come to you 

We're gonna lie down beside you, mama 

We're gonna be with you 

We're gonna join you 

We're gonna lie down beside you, mama 

Photos 

And we'll be safe and sheltered in our graves 

We'll come before you 

and we will kiss you 

We'll go for one final hug, mama
