Ever since I was on cripples Monday,

I've got my eyeballs on my knees.

I rapped for hours with mad Mary Williams,

she said she never understood a word from me

because, I know that she cares about me,

I heard her call my name.

And I know that she's long, dead and gone,

still it ain't the same.

When I wake up in the morning, mama,

I heard her call my name.

I know she's dead and long, gone.

I heard her call my name.

And then I felt my mind split open.

I know that she's long, dead and gone,

still it ain't the same.

When I wake up in the morning, mama,

I heard her call my name.

I know she's dead and long, gone.

Still, I heard her call my name.

And then my mind split open.
