Ryan Adams - Mamma

Woman, am I the human
Am I the depot
When the train rolls in
Mamma, am I the human
Am I the crowbars
When the door's kicked in
Woman, am I the children
Watching the spacemen from the television

Mamma, am I the caveman
Am I the buffalo
Am I the dried up bones

Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
You didn't leave him alive
Mamma, how was he supposed to survive

Woman, am I the human
Am I the turbulence
Under the wingspan
Mamma, am I still Batman
Am I the sirens
Am I the ambulance
Woman, am I too weak then
Shove all the rocks all
In lines with the plowman

Mamma, am I the snowman
Am I the rainfall
And the sky when it's freezing

Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
You didn't leave him alive
Mamma, how was he supposed to survive

Without a woman
Without a brother
Without a sister
Without a father
Without a mother
Oh, my brother
How was he supposed to survive

My armour
How was he supposed to survive
