Mary Duff - Mama Was A Working Man songtekst
Je score:
It seems like everyday... I hear somebody say How a working man today has started back And then my memory will take me Back to the one who raised me And I'd think of all the troubles that she had Back in fifty eight... after daddy went away Mama took a job working at the plant And she'd put in her time On that old assembly line And she held her own with any union man Mama was a working man Mama was a working man And she raised me to be proud of who I am We didn't call it Liberation We just called it love back then Gentle heart and two strong hands Mama was a working man I could see it in her eyes... when she came home at night How tired she was a-working hard all day She made a living and a home And if the truth be known She worked twice as hard... for half the pay Mama was a working man Mama was a working man And she raised me to be proud of who I am We didn't call it Liberation We just called it love back then Gentle heart and two strong hands Mama was a working man And a heroes what they called her On the gold watch that they bought her After thirty years they finally understand that Mama was a working man Mama was a working man And she raised me to be proud of who I am We didn't call it Liberation We just called it love back then A gentle heart and two strong hands Mama was a working man She had a gentle heart and two strong hands Mama was a working man
