Mama - Electric Light Orchestra
She came up from the country with a smile for everyone She left her blue horizon just to find another home A lonely girl who'd traveled many days A lonely heart that could not find the way And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Momma, it's a sad and lonely life A misty morning rider, she came wanderin' through the hills A wanderin' soul appearin' over rainy window sills A loser in her heart but in her face A smile for everyone under God's grace And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Momma, it's a sad and lonely life And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear Midnight maiden madness, what to search for in this place' Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face A lady lost in nowhere but her stare Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near
