Testo di Mamma

Birds have their nests Foxes have their holes I have no place to lay my head Been forty days tempted by the devil Like a reed shaking in the wind Wheels of time are like caffeine To pass this cup from me Kneeling on the tears that drop like blood My face is the glow of destiny Mamma say a prayer for me I heard the devil speak like tongues As he left the throne of grace I felt the wisdom of the ages But he never showed his face He danced on the head of the cross Lost his footing and he fell Stole a kiss from Jesus Burned his lips snow white pale Mamma say a prayer for me
