Mama, Won't You Carry Me Home?

from Searching For Sound (in progress demos) by Brian Smith

/

lyrics

From a small town in the countryside
Knowing if I stayed, it’d bury me alive
Lucky for me, I got out just in time
Mama won’t you carry me home?

Feet so heavy, I can barely stand
Everything is according to mysterious plans
Cause my dreams never told me that I can’t
Mama won’t you carry me home?

Mama won’t you carry me home?
Oh Mama won’t you carry me home?
Mama home for me is on the road
So Mama won’t you carry me home?

Everything I own is on my back
Got no burdens nor dreams I lack
Nothing I need I forgot to pack
Mama won’t you carry me home?

Been around so long I forgot where I am
Makes it hard when asking directions
Try to show me where to go without using your hands
Mama won’t you carry me home?

Mama won’t you carry me home?
Oh Mama won’t you carry me home?
Mama home for me is on the road
So Mama won’t you carry me home?

Second hands and one-night stands
Every roadmap is a change of plans
Each entrance an exit for another man
Mama won’t you carry me home?

Never was into old folk songs
That you can make up as you go along
Guess the next line for you can’t be wrong
Mama won’t you carry me home?

Mama won’t you carry me home?
Oh Mama won’t you carry me home?
Mama home for me is on the road
So Mama won’t you carry me home?

Home,
is on the road
So tell me how to dream and I’ll tell you where to go
Mama won’t you carry me home
