lyrics

Mother wears her wedding ring
Doesn't tell me anything
She keeps a lock on the door
I want my mother from before

Walks around the house at night
Keeps from turning on the light

She's got a dog on a chain
Pumping lies into his brain

Mother Mary
Pray sweet Jesus in your name

Mother reads a lot of books
Listens to the radio
She's like a fish on a hook
Where she gets it, I don't know

She siccs the dog on me
He doesn't bite me 'til she looks

Mother Mary
Pray sweet Jesus in your name

Mother wears her wedding ring
Doesn't tell the dog a thing
Keeps it locked behind a door
He wants my mother from before
