Single Mother
Monday morning, 3am
Baby's crying in her crib
Opened a letter from the landlord that read,
"If there's no rent check you'll be evicted"
The sink is dripping and the heater's broke
TV channels are just a joke
Frost on the windows looks like prison chains
Holding you back from a change in things
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
Boyfriend kicked your front door in
Late at night on a drinking binge
He lost his job at the factory
And now he takes it out on you and your new baby
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
You didn't choose this situation
A single mother with no education
You'll find a way, find a way
To get through all these days and nights
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
Oh Mama
It's all right
