Mama Always Told Me lyrics

Mama always told me

Don't build your house

On the shifting sands

When the wind comes a' blowing

The first wind that will blow

Will blow it down

Mama always told me

Don't build your house

On the shifting sands

When the wind comes a' blowing

The first wind that will blow

Will blow it down

Oh it's an endless road

But I keep trying

I'm going down the railroad

I'm going down

Where no one can find me

Raise our love under a shady grove

Papa always told me

Girl never let your deal go down

He told me

Little girl don't let them steal your soul

Oh it's an endless road

But I keep trying

I'm going down the railroad

I'm going down

Where no one can find me

Raise our love under a shady grove

Mama always told me

Don't build your house

On the shifting sands

When the wind comes a' blowing

The first wind that will blow

Will blow it down

Oh it's an endless road

But I keep trying

I'm going down the railroad

I'm going down

Where no one can find me

Raise our love under a shady grove

Mama always told me

Don't build your house

On the shifting sands

When the wind comes a' blowing

The first wind that will blow

Will blow it down
