Heather Woods Broderick - Mama Shelter lyrics

My brother's city crawling Gonna stake his own My mama shelter's cross the country Saying babes come on home My father's counting a fortune More than he's ever known The eyes that blamed the distance of the ocean Stopped saying honey come ah come on The pressure lies within the pride that's losing some The time I spend on other lives becomes less fun I thank the luck I've always had in starting up But I got half a mind to movie away and give it up Got some loving arms holding me tight Some right that came from the wrong Your smoking eyes put a worry in me I'd like to see you feel at home Got a letter from beautiful Sara Saying she's feeling awfully down Moving around from place to place Chin up while she's saving face But I don't like the thought of her walking around the city crying The pressure lies within the pride that's losing some The time I spend on other lives becomes less fun I thank the luck I've always had starting up But I got half a mind to move away and give it up
