Family Tree - Mason Jennings

Well all the dreams have gone from my worried mind

Ain’t no pretty pictures left by luck’s design

And baby, i’m just a leaf hanging on my family tree

I’m just a leaf hanging on my family tree

And it’s a weak branch that’s been hanging me

April if you may comes to june and july

All these months to the flame and still no butterfly boy

I’m just a leaf blowing on my family tree

I’m just a leaf blowing on my family tree

And it’s strong wind that’s been blowing me

Baby don’t you cry

It won’t matter to you

'cause every bad life goes by and your mama loves you

Yes she does

Now there’s alotta good things that my daddy did but

There ain’t no burden like an unplanned kid

And baby, i’m falling now don’t know where i’m gonna land

I’m falling now don’t know where i’m gonna land

Half in the shadows, honey, and half in the light, that’s right

Baby don’t you cry

It won’t matter to you

It won’t matter to you

'cause every bad life goes by and your mama loves you
