Mama,
oh ma,
ma, oh ma
A star that once shined so bright
She's falling on her knees
Right in front of me, my oh my Hello,
good morning
little girl
Yes, your mama
didn't really teach you about the world too well
And your daddy sewed you down the river for nothing
And though the wind
cries your name
You've nothing to say
You've lost your way,
sister,
come home now And the wolves at your door
are rapping once
more As the night
closes in
Sweet sister,
please come home
I'm still in memory
so far
Blonded by shadows round your heart
Running from the silver spilling from your shoes
Running from the voices that keep telling you
Your daddy sewed you down the river for
nothing And though the wind cries your name
You've nothing to say
You've lost your way,
sister, come home now
And the wolves at your door are rapping
once more
As the night
closes in Sweet sister, please,
sweet sister, please
come home
Sister, please come home
