lyrics

Your mama always had a real strong face, got a real strong case for a woman’s place
And papa always knew the things to say around her

Your sister never had a thing to say, but said it anyway,
You never wanted anything to do with her

But now you’re singing with your mama’s tongue
And now you’re sighing in your daddy’s lungs
And sister doesn’t know a thing about love but she’s gotta a good man to love her

And you’re all alone

My daddy always had a real strong voice, and his words were choice, and his spit was moist
And mama always knew the things to say around him

My sister always knew what not to do, and just how not to move
I always want to be just as good her

But now I’m screaming in my daddy’s tongues
And now I’m sighing in my mama’s lungs
And sister knows her way around a true love and she’s gotta good man to love her

I don’t know if I can rise above, the things that I’ve come from, and teach myself to trust
I know I’m never gonna be the man for you

You never really understood the grace of a woman’s place
You never noticed how I really cared for you

But now we’re singing in our parent’s tongues
And now we’re boxing with our broken gloves
You always thought that you were treated unjust, as I only just tried to love you
Now we’re all alone
