Charley Crockett - Sweet Mother Texas Lyrics

Charley Crockett Lyrics

"Sweet Mother Texas"

You reared me, you raised me
I'm your native son
Ever forgiving
The wrongs that I've done

Locked up in Little Rock
Broke down to the bone
I'll be free tomorrow
I'm coming home

Sweet Mother Texas
Rock-a-bye me
I've seen all the places
I wanna see
It's time this old rounder
Set his mind at ease
Sweet Mother Texas
Rock-a-bye me

She laughed at my boots
And my slow Texas drawl
I'll bend a lot, but
Be damned if I crawl
I cannot be
What she wants me to be
Sweet Mother Texas
Rock-a-bye me

Sweet Mother Texas
Rock-a-bye me
I've seen all the places
I wanna see
It's time this old rounder
Set his mind at ease
Sweet Mother Texas
Rock-a-bye me
