I walked down Myrtle avenue to meet my sister for some company
And she said she heard my other half had escaped from penitentiary
I got home about nine a.m. and somebody had changed the locks
I walked outside and spent three months sleeping in a buick that was up on blocks
Maybe there's nothing left to do
I've tried to k** myself, i've tried to sing about you
They say the only way to win a mama's girl is with praise... well maybe not today
Cause it's another summer not having you here to hold me
It's another sunset not knowing where you're at
And i know better baby than to say nobody told me
So if you're lying down next to another, then girl i tip my hat
I walked down to my sister's house and told her my true love was gone
She told me she was going to walk up in the hills and get a mountain
Girl all her own
Well she left town that afternoon and put her house keys on the shelf
Nobody knows but i followed her trail and pushed her off a cliff myself
Maybe there's nothing left to say
It could've been a little much to treat family that way
They say the only way to win a mama's girl is with style...
Well i can try it for a while
Cause its another summer not having you here to hold me
It'll be a another sunset not knowing where you're at
And i know better baby than to say nobody told me
So if you're lying down next to another, then girl i tip my hat
Maybe there's nothing left to do
I've tried to k** myself, i've tried to sing about you
They say the only way to win a mama's girl is with style...
Well I can try it for a while
Cause it's another summer not having you here to hold me
It'll be another sunset not knowing where you're at
And if it wasn't for your mother, we could settle right down in a week or two
But if you're lying down next to another, then girl i tip my hat
