My Bitter Seed

My mother told me, use my bitter seed

My mother told me, you the one I need

And that's why baby, honey, you miseryYou've gone from rags to riches, silver to gold

When they made you they throw away the moldShe told me, use my bitter seed

And that's why baby, honey you miseryBaby, baby you the one I need

Baby, baby you just wait an'see

For you pretty baby, I'll swim the deep blue sea
