<poem> | |||
Young bones groan, and the rocks below say | |||
"Throw your skinny body down, son" | |||
But I'm going to meet the one I love | |||
So please don't stand in my way | |||
Because I'm going to meet the one I love | |||
No, mama, let me go | |||
Young bones groan and the rocks below say | |||
"Throw your white body down" | |||
But I'm going to meet the one I love | |||
At last, at last, at last! | |||
I'm going to meet the one I love | |||
La-de-da, la-de-da | |||
No, mama, let me go | |||
No, no, no, no, no, no | |||
I thought that if you had an acoustic guitar | |||
Then it meant that you were | |||
A protest singer | |||
Oh, I can smile about it now | |||
But at the time it was terrible | |||
No, mama, let me go | |||
No, no, no, no, no, no | |||
