Take me, mama, take me
Could you take me on down
On down from my rain cloud
When i'm heavy
Heavy as a rose
Of summer left out in the snow
Take me when I'm heavy
Take me mama-o
Shake me, papa shake me
I'm a gambling spade
A gamble and a scramble
Sunny side up some days
But one day, papa one day
I will blow this world away
One day, papa one day
Blow this world away
One day, brother one day
When the light ain't so low
One day when the storm
Ain't so heavy
One day we will see
Eye to eye oh, you and me
One day we will see
One day, you and me
Someday we will see
How bright some light can be
One day we will see
One day, you and me
