Intro:
Fade in with Riff 1

  Riff 1
My friends, my dear friends,
And lovers, oh my lovers
I?d leave you for them  
Got a hand on my back

Riff 2 (bridge)
 
  Riff 1
Mama has money now and mama has friends
She's making rags for some uptown hags
With their money in bags and

Riff 2      Riff 1
Why are you so sad?
Why are you always so sad?
Riff 2            Riff 1
Why do I not understand?
Why don't I see what it is you see?
                             Riff 2
Why can't I live and just be?
                 Riff 1  
I'm full of guilt, I am full of guilt
You're very tall, you're very handsome
                                           Riff 2

Why not float around with me?
                            Riff 2
It won't take you so long
          Riff 1
You can go where I'm at
You can hang around with me

A few good men will go where they all
Where they all not be
And a few good mothers go for what they
What they all not teach
I long for a touch or reminder of us
But, but it must not be
And a few strong branches over water,
Reach for what they all not reach

Riff 1 (bridge)

I hope your mother knows
Where it is you have been
I hope your mother knows
                                                        Riff 2
What it is you have seen
                           Riff 1
She'd be so proud
