Sleep, Mama, Sleep
There's no need to scream no more
Daddy just walked out the door
He'll see his whore and be back one more
time tomorrow, to tell you he loves you
Like on the day he met you
and bring you some more sorrow
Sleep, Mama,
Sleep, Mama,
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
How many reasons do you need
To pack up all your stuff and simply leave?
How many more times can you bleed
Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
Chase peace in your dream
A home where there is fear
Leaves no hope at all
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
There's nothing more to say about it
Nothing to debate about
the bruises you don't need.
Sleep, Mama,
Sleep, Mama,
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
Your pride won't hurt for doing so
You'll be breaking some unwritten law
A law that you don't need
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
Some promises you keep
Sometimes sacrifices don't prove
Worth the pain they put you through.
Sleep, Mama,
Sleep, Mama,
Sleep, Mama, Sleep
How many reasons do you need
To pack up all your stuff and simply leave?
How many more times can you bleed
Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep
Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep
Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep
