Saw My Mama Cryin - Walter Trout

I saw my mama cryin'

I heard her weep in morn

I saw my mama cryin'

And I heard her weep in morn

And I reached right out and help her

So she would not feel so alone

I saw my mama struggle

But she never did complain

I saw my mama struggle

But she never did complain, no, no-o

When she thought I wasn’t lookin'

You know her face was filled with pain, Lord

One day I found my mama

Standing in the backyard cryin'

I asked her what was wrong

She said she was getting tired and tryin'

Then she said, don’t worry son, it’s just a passin' face

She dried her eyes and smiled at me, said: it’s bound to be some better days

I saw my mama cryin'

I heard her weep in morn, yes I did

And I reached right out and help her

So she would not be so alone, lone, lone, lone

I saw her getting' older

As we move from place to place

I saw mama getting' older

As we move from place to place

And when death came 'round and took her

I saw a peaceful smile upon her face, yes I did, yes I did

I saw my mama cryin'

Oh Lord, I saw my mama cryin'

I saw my Mama cryin'

I was just a Boy and saw her cry, cry, cry, cry, cryin'
