Mama Take Your Time - River Whyless

Between the blinds

Every other line

Is darkness keepin' tabs on me

Sunday is holy, son

He’s on your

Callin' out towards heaven

And I’m callin' out to

Mama, take your time

I’m not caught up in it

Mama, take your time

I don’t know if ever I’ll be

Always headin' home but I’m never there

I don’t know why it’s so hard gettin' back to you

Another day in your nightgown, another branch hangin' low

I know your hand are tired, so it goes

Mama, take your time

I’m not caught up in it

Mama, take your time

I don’t know if ever I’ll be

Mama, take your time

I’m not caught up in it

Mama, take your time

I don’t know if ever I’ll be

Save a place for me, Mama

In your long line of regret

And I’ve come to be like you

And I know that you hate that

So I’m headed home

And I hope you’re there

And I never meant to be this

I never meant to be this

Mama, take your time

Mama, take your time

Mama, take your time

Mama, take your time

I’m not caught up in it

Mama, take your time

I don’t know if ever I’ll be

Mama, take your time

I’m not caught up in it

Mama, take your time

I don’t know if ever I’ll be

Mama, take your time
