about

The mother of this girl should DEFINITELY be worried!

lyrics

Mama I told you not to worry but I'm leaving town today

Mama you know I married young and so innocently
I bought a house and got a job, you and Daddy were so pleased
The wind started blowin', and I got to knowin'
I'm a tumbleweed, I'm a rollin' along
Following my gypsy lover and his guitar song

Mama I told you not to worry but I fell in love with a guitar man
Tried to stay the straight and narrow but I just don't think I can
He lives his life by the gypsy code
He lives his life out on the road
Mama I told you not to worry but I fell in love with a guitar man

Some spend their days just building up them towers made of glass
Well, the old grim reaper is peepin’ in every window as he laughs
Don't know where I'm going, only that I'm flowing
Can't say where I've been, ain't no time for slowin'
Trying to kiss each day before it slips past

Mama I told you not to worry but I'm wanted by the law
Maybe I ought not t'done it, maybe I won't get caught
I'll live my life out on the run
Sleepin' under stars and wakin' with the sun
Mama I told you not to worry but I'm wanted by the law

Life can be mysterious, certainly unkind
Top of the ladder, mind over matter
If it doesn’t matter never mind

They set up the game, it's always the same
so that we lose, lose, lose every time we gain
They want us to forget that we're strong

Mama I told you not to worry but I shot a man down today
He came for my last dollar and I wasn't about to pay
I give away free smiles
But I’ll save some up for my trial
Mama I told you not to worry but I shot a man down today
Mama I told you not to worry but I shot a man down today
