Only Mama Knows Lyrics

Well, I was found in the transit lounge Of a dirty airport town What was I doing on the road to ruin? Well, my mama laid me down, my mama laid me down
Around my hand was a plastic band With a picture of my face I was crying, left to die In this godforsaken place, this godforsaken place
Only mama knows what she laid me down In this godforsaken town Well, she was running too, what she ran from Oh, I always wondered, I never knew Only mama knows, only mama knows
I'm passing through, I'm on my way On the road, no ETA I'm passing through, no fixed abode And that is why I need to try to hold on I've got to hold on, to hold on
Was it planned as a one night stand Or did she leave in disgrace? Well, I never, will I ever See my father's face, see my father's face?
Only mama knows what she laid me down In this godforsaken town Well, she was running too, what she ran from Oh, I always wondered, I never knew Only mama knows, only mama knows
Only mama knows what she laid me down In this godforsaken town Well, she was running too, what she ran from Oh, I always wondered, I never knew Only mama knows, only mama knows
Gotta hold on, gotta hold on You gotta hold on
