Old 97's No Mother
In the valley of the shadows, I?m waiting
For mother and the other ones I love
So know I?ll always love you
Until we meet above
In the battle of the bottle I?m an innocent
And the breaking of glass I?m lost
In the shadow of a downtown overpass
My last I did exhaust
No, no, no mother
Should ever have to lose a son
No, no, no never
Especially not such a handsome one
In the middle of the meadow, I?m waiting
For mother and the other ones I love
There?s no good why this came to pass
There?s only just because
No, no, no mother
Should ever have to lose a son
No, no, no never
Especially not such a handsome one
In the valley of the shadows, I?m waiting
For mother and the other ones I love
So know, I?ll always love you
Until we meet above
No, no, no mother
Should ever have to lose a son
No, no, no never
Especially not such a handsome one
No, no, no, no mother
Should ever have to lose a son
No, no, no, no never
Especially not such a handsome one
