Mamma Rock 'N' Roller - The Motors

Dead drunk in the middle of the road

Nobody cares

Too late, she got a heavy load

Too weak to make it to the show

And now the curtain calls

To remind me

They’re waiting in the wings

And now the lights are turned down low

Read all about it

Mama rock 'n' roller ain’t gonna make it

Mama rock 'n' roller ain’t gonna make it

Read all about it, read it in the news

Got a front-page photograph

Rock 'n' roll queen tried to kick the blues

Spend a dime if you got some time to laugh

Last night, singing in the rain (The rain, rain)

But tonight, tonight, a needle in a vein (Vein, vein, vein)

It’s on the radio

TV stations

Every street corner

You can hear the newsboys call

Read all about it

Mama rock 'n' roller ain’t gonna make it

Mama rock 'n' roller ain’t gonna make it

Read all about it, read it in the news

Got a front-page photograph

Rock 'n' roll queen tried to kick the blues

Spend a dime if you got some time to laugh

Can I have your autograph?

Can I take your photograph?

Really liked the show tonight

Do you want to feel alright?

And now the curtain calls

To remind me

They’re waiting in the wings

And now the lights are turned down low

Read all about it
