Tim Stonelake - Mama Went Plumb Crazy

I got my education
In a place where dreams were dead
I wish I'd been taught better
Took years to fix my head
Now my heart is mended
And my brain is not on hold
But memories of that early time
Still make my blood run cold

When mama went plumb crazy
Daddy got drunk to set hisself free
Granny said they can't help it
But Jesus would take care of me

Well life was mean and life was cruel
Til I found the secret out
Life's not the future or the past
But just breathing in and out
If ignorance is bliss you know I'll always wonder why
Some folks in high places have forgotten how to cry

When mama went plumb crazy
Daddy got drunk to set himself free
Granny told me don't worry, cuz
Jesus would take care of me

I got my education
In a place where dreams were dead
I wish I'd been taught better
Took years to fix my head

When mama went plumb crazy
Daddy got drunk to set hisself free
Granny told me don't worry, cuz
Jesus would take care of me
Jesus
