lyrics

It ain’t rained in forty days
But I see the clouds coming through that humid haze
I ran up to your door and rang the bell
first thing that you said to me was boy you look like hell

And I said Hey Hey Mama, I’m tired of these streets
I need me a bottle of whiskey and something good to eat
Please give me shelter, and help me keep warm
Everybody needs someone to weather the storm

Well she says boy you been gone for 2 years time
I ain’t heard a word from you, so don’t give me no lines
Go on in and washup and get you some food
and stay off that whiskey son, it’ll do you no good

Hey Hey Mama, I’m tired of these streets
I need me a bottle of whiskey and something (good) to eat
Please give me shelter, and help me keep warm
Everybody needs someone to weather the storm

It started rainin’ as I turned on the water
to wash away all the shame
and I said hold on before we get much further
can you please, tell me my name?

You said son
you are my son

And I said Hey Hey Mama, I’m tired of these streets
I need me a bottle of whiskey and something good to eat
Please give me shelter, and help me keep warm
Everybody needs someone to weather the storm
