Be Thankful (Mama's Song) - Loose Ends

Jane, what did mother said?

She said «All good men will go to heaven»

She said that?

If you’re thankful for what you got

Hard times come around for everyone

But not everybody can cope now

Something’s got to give when you work so hard to give

It’s a story of ???

So perfectly I’m in a place where I like to be

But like so many try to ???

life has got to me

For I can see

Mama, she always told me

Be thankful for what you’ve got

Don’t worry when things get lonely

It’s all a state of mind

I’ve never had the inclination to give myself a situation

Where I would be at the top of life’s tree

I’ve always been on shaky ground

???But look what I found I found in the fading dream that’s me???

No way, no how, I can’t give up on my life, no

But although the future waves

I got to find my way

To a brighter day

Mama, she always told me

Be thankful for what you’ve got

Don’t worry when things get lonely

It’s all a state of mind

When I can’t take no more

Hang on now, hang on

My mama said to me

Mama, she always told me, you need to find a guide in life

Sacred is your state of mind
