Verse 1
N.c.
You Remind Me Of My Mother's Greatest Fear, Mm
Gave Her Life For My Protection, Through The Years, From My Tears

Then You Came Along And Tore It Down
With Your Deception, You Let Me Drown
N.c.
And All The Tears My Mother Saved
Hit Me Like A Wave, Mm (Let's Go, Bitch)

Oh, Beware The Woman Scorned
She Would Move A Mountain For Me
Cross The Driest Desert For Her Child
Like A Hurricane, Her Pain Would Rip The Roots Out From The Ground

Oh, Sing For Me (What You Holdin' Onto?)
Sing For Me (Mama's Comin' For You)

And, Oh, It Hit Me Like A Wave
I Have Been Betrayed
(Sing For Me, Girl)

Sing
Mother's Comin'
Sing For Me

Verse 4
Mother, I Don't Know Where To Start
If I Stay, Will He Break My Heart?
Maybe There's Still Time To Explain
But I'm Too Tied Up In My Pain Now
I Start To Sweat, It's Hard To Breathe
I Cry For Help, Could You Get Here Any Faster, Any Faster?

Keep Your Head (I Will Hold You Steady)
Hold Me Steady

Hold Me Steady (Keep Your Head Up, Baby)
Oh (I Will Hold You Steady)
And, Oh, It Hit Me Like A Wave
I Have Been Betrayed, Mm
