Farmer's Boys - Mama Never Told Me lyrics

Mama never told me About things that papa used to do We thought he loved us so Woah oh Woah oh Always digging trenches, making fences To stop the rain it came a dashing down Woah oh Woah oh Mama never told me Mama never said Mama never told me Mama never said (repeat) Mama never told me About things that papa used to do I thought he loved us so Woah oh Woah oh Always digging trenches, making fences To stop the rain it came a dashing down Woah oh Woah oh Then I grew older no longer a child But a man in search for love and truth Woah oh Woah oh Papa was a drinker And he died when a whisky bottle got his knees His brother's name was Joe Well the years pa**ed and life grew harder And then one day the rains came and washed all the crops away We tried our best to carry on, my mother and me But it didn't work I couldn't hide the tears Mama never told me Mama never said Mama never told me Mama never said Mama never told me About things papa used to do I thought he loved us so Mama never told me Mama never said Mama never told me Mama never said
