Stranglers - Tramp lyrics

I never knew I had a father until I lost the sun

I didn't understand what he did or what he has done

He took it much too far took it all in stride

I'll never reach the top of the mountain

Until I find out why

Mother blues

Mother blues

Came from this place there's no mistake

Where livin's not much fun

He knew his chances for romancing

He knew it all along

He took it much too far

Took it all in stride

I'll never reach the top of the mountain

Till I find out why

Mother blues

Mother blues

I'm gonna meet you there

I'm gonna find you

I know I'll see you soon

He took it much too far

Took it all in stride

I'll never reach the top of the mountain

Till I find out why

Mother blues

Mother blues

Mother blues

Mother blues
