"Mama" lyrics

"Mama"

I could blame it on a memory
I could blame it on my blood
But as soon as that poison hits me I can't ever get enough
I know I need some saving
Been driving with one headlight
I'll get around to changing
But I ain't gonna change tonight

So
Don't put that on me mama
I've talked to God before
It feels like he don't wanna
Hear from me no more
This devil in the bottle
Don't wanna let me go
There ain't no holy water
Gonna save my soul
Those prayers you sent through the ceiling
No they ain't worth a heart like mine
God knows my shoulders don't need the weight of the world tonight
Don't put that on me mama

Let me live in this nightmare
What's another cold sweat?
When I'm fighting my demons
All I can hear is your voice in my head
And I'm trying my best, so

Don't put that on me mama
I've talked to God before
It feels like he don't wanna
Hear from me no more
This devil in the bottle
Don't wanna let me go
There ain't no holy water
Gonna save my soul
Those prayers you sent through the ceiling
No they ain't worth a heart like mine
God knows my shoulders don't need the weight of the world tonight
Don't put that on me mama

I know I need some saving
Been driving with one headlight
I'll get around to changing
But I ain't gonna change tonight

So
Don't put that on me mama
I've talked to God before
It feels like he don't wanna
Hear from me no more
This devil in the bottle
Don't wanna let me go
There ain't no holy water
Gonna save my soul
Those prayers you sent through the ceiling
No they ain't worth a heart like mine
God knows my shoulders don't need the weight of the world tonight
Don't put that on me mama
Don't put that on me mama
Don't put that on me mama
