Mama, mama, I have fell Slipped into the wishing well Paid my price, I'm now in hell Bent your rope, it seems that I've fallen Link at the stars that cover day All the light has turned to gray I'd better stop or lose my way Tuck me in and read a story Seem to want that's every vine After what we leave behind It's a life of the daily grind Forget what all our hopes and dreams are Papa, papa, please help me I have swam to far and sea The water is deep, the waves are high Hold out your arms, I think that I'm drowning I have climbed the highest limb Look at what's involved within Separated good from sin Seems I'm on the last tree standing Growing, sleeping you and I All the while I wonder why When we go will someone cry Remember us when we're six feet under Rest your hand on my aching head Have this feeling, the man is dead Is it something I am, or something I said? Give me the black car, calling the landlady Mama, mama, I have fell Slipped into the wishing well Paid my price, I'm now in hell Bent your rope, it seems that I've fallen I have climbed the highest limb Look at what's involved within Separated good from sin Seems I'm on the last tree standing The last tree standing The last tree standing The last tree standing
