Holy Mother
B. Sheffield - Copyright 2007 - (from the album) Journal On The Shelf
*You got to lay me down, Holy Mother
Shake me down to the bone
Lay me down, Holy Mother
You know man dont live by bread alone
You sit there by the stove
And you read from the book of Job
Glory waits in heaven there
But we aint in heaven, Holy Mother
And everything I need youve got right here
* Chorus
Well you say the life I lead
And the things It takes to please
Will lead me to hells burning fire
But just remember that
The God that made me is the same
God that gave me my desire
* Chorus
Now honey your no disgrace
To your Christian faith, as any fool can plainly see
I wish youd lay me down, holy mother
And show me just how naughty you can be
* Chorus
Now honey I cant wait, to reach the heavenly gate
Holy Mother hear my heated prayer
If you lay me down, Holy Mother
I know Im gonna find salvation there
Come on lay me down, Holy Mother
Shake me down to the bone
Youve got to lay me down, Holy Mother
You know man dont live by bread alone.
Come on and lay me down, Holy Mother,
shake me down to the bone
Youve got to lay me down, Holy Mother
You know man dont live by bread alone.
