lyrics

When I was a little child my mother sang the blues
She opened up her evil eyes and sang the sweetest tunes.

Her lips grew dark and brazed the marks, and wine was always met
With shallow eyes that sleep at night and dream the sweetest dreams

To conceal the night, a widowed fright, with hopes to see the light

I will fight, to see the light (x2)

Mother said the world would med a broken heart to death
She lay still when lights grew clear and mother she left.

I will fight, to see the light. (x2)

Mother left with dreams of death, her dreams they did come true.
And in the light, she fought the fight and god took her soon.

I will fight, to see the light (x2)
