Poor Mum Lyrics


Poor mum, poor mum
After a lifetime of dreaming
Poor mum, poor mum
Whatever became of your schemingNothing worked out
In the way that you planned
Nothing was quite as you thought
Try very hard not to misunderstand
Joy as it flies
Cannot be caughtPoor mum, Poor mum
Where did you take a wrong turning?
Poor mum, poor mum
Pack up that last little yearningPack it away with the books and the toys
Silent and dumb
Silent and mumGo out and grab at your life
And forget
You are poor, poor..."Mum"

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Nick Drake (Nicholas Rodney Drake, Rangoon, Burma, June 19, 1948 - Tanworth-in-Arden, England, November 25, 1974) was an English folk singer known for his gentle, enigmatic songs and his virtuoso right-hand finger picking technique. Although he recorded only three albums, critics and fellow musicians hold his work in very high esteem. Drake failed to find a wide audience during his lifetime, and had a strong aversion to performing. Since his death, however, Drake's music has gained a significant cult following.
