Lyrics
Juanita
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No affection were the words
That stuck on my mind
When she walked out on me
For the very last time
Oh, mama, sweet mama
Can you tell me what to say
I don't know what i've done
To be treated this way
In a cold dirty room
That's where i found myself
With a bottle of wine
And some pills on the shelf
Oh, mama, sweet mama
Can you tell me what to say
I don't know what i've done
And i'm feeling so ashamed
Then an angel appeared
She was just seventeen
In a dirty old gown
With a conscience so clean
Oh, mama, sweet mama
Can you tell me what to say
She's brought back the life
That i once threw away
She's brought back the life
That i once threw away
