FAMILY BLUES
Well you know when I was young
Don’t ya know I had all the fun
Sitting up on my Mama’s knee
Her sweet voice singing to me
You know I didn’t understand
Didn’t want her holding my hand
I need her love
I don’t know why
I see her face
I start to cry
I need her love
I don’t know why
I see her face
I start to cry
Well ya know my Daddy would call
We’d go out and have a ball
Showed me how to be a man
Told me son, do the best you can
You know I didn’t understand
Didn’t want him holding my hand
I need his love
I don’t know why
I see his face
I start to cry
I need his love
I don’t know why
I see his face
I start to cry
Need his love
I don’t know
Why
Need his love
But it
makes me cry
Need his love
I don’t know
Why
Need his love
But it
makes me cry
Won’t somebody come and hold my hand?
Won’t somebody be the perfect man?
I see your face and wanna cry
the tears in my eyes, babe
Won’t somebody come and hold my hand?
Won’t somebody be the perfect man?
I see your face and wanna cry
the tears in my eyes, babe
Don’t ya know I wasn’t alone
Had a twin sister I could call my own
Changed her name when she was three
Now she’s grown but still a stranger to me
You know I didn’t understand
Didn’t want her holding my hand
I need her love
I don’t know why
I see her face
I start to cry
I need her love
I don’t know why
I see her face
I start to cry
Need her love
I don’t know
Why
Need her love
But it
Makes me cry
Need her love
I don’t know
Why
Need her love
But it
Makes me cry
Need her love
I don’t know
Why
Need her love
But it
Makes me cry
Need her love
I don’t know
Why
Need her love
But it
Makes me cry
Need her love
I don’t know
Why
Need her love
But it
Makes me cry
Need her love
I don’t know
Why
Need her love
But it
Makes me cry
