From the recording Scorched Earth - Black Heart

Lyrics


Every fight he ever fought, never could admit he’d lost
Mama’s favorite son never wanted to be no one
Just trying to hold on to something that was already gone

He ain’t one to back down from a fight
Doesn’t matter if he’s wrong or right
Even if it costs him every last dime that he’s worked for all his life
He’ll never put a price on his pride

Does he believe what he’s saying ‘cause I love every word

She always knew the day would come
Her little boy was all grown up
Mama’s favorite son turned out just like she wanted
She raised him up to see the truth could be whatever he believed

Does he believe what he’s saying ‘cause I love every word
