No Mother - Old 97's

In the valley of the shadows, I?

m waiting

For mother and the other ones I love

So know I?

ll always love you

Until we meet above

In the battle of the bottle I?

m an innocent

And the breaking of glass I?

m lost

In the shadow of a downtown overpass

My last I did exhaust

No, no, no mother

Should ever have to lose a son

No, no, no never

Especially not such a handsome one

In the middle of the meadow, I?

m waiting

For mother and the other ones I love

There?

s no good why this came to pass

There?

s only just because

No, no, no mother

Should ever have to lose a son

No, no, no never

Especially not such a handsome one

In the valley of the shadows, I?

m waiting

For mother and the other ones I love

So know, I?

ll always love you

Until we meet above

No, no, no mother

Should ever have to lose a son

No, no, no never

Especially not such a handsome one

No, no, no, no mother

Should ever have to lose a son

No, no, no, no never

Especially not such a handsome one
