Does Your Mother Know

Does your mother know

You had to go someday

Does your mother know

That you would go so fast

Anyway, that's all you think about

You'd call her if you could

But the letters that you write

In the faded winter light

Just tell her they tell her

That you've got ten dollars and you'll be all right

And when you get straight you're gonna come back east some day



Does your mother know

You have a man in the west

Does your mother know

You drove him from your door

Anyway that's all you think about

You'd call her if you could



Does your mother know

You walked all day in the rain

Does your mother know

How deep your love could be

Anyway that's all you think about

You'd call her if you could



But the letters that you write

In the faded winter light

Just tell her they tell her

That you've got ten dollars and your rent costs eight

And when you get straight you're gonna come back east some day



But the letters that you write in the faded winter light

Just tell her they tell her
