This Crazy Life Lyrics

Little sister, a few months old
Died in the crib, it smelled so bad
Survived on the neighbors milk you stole
Never knew mom and you never saw dadLost in foster home confusion
In your eyes, love's just an illusion
Defensive all your life
Wish I could make it all a lieAnd say, it's just okay
And make it go awayYou, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your motherYou, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain itIt's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy lifeJust 18, had your first child
You were beaten, abused and torn
Five years on when the paper's filed
Still you never knew when you were bornSo mama tell me a bedtime story
Say a little prayer, so not to worry
Make a wish up in the air

Just say a word and I'll be thereTo make it all okay
To make it go awayYou, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your motherYou, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain itIt's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy lifeYou, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your motherYou, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain itYou, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your motherYou, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain itIt's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy life
So sleep tight
