lyrics

I JUST CALLED HER MA
by Pamela Means


She was a drunk from another era
Born in August nineteen twenty-seven
On the eve of the Great Depression
Married seven times and divorced every fella'

She was sorrowful and yearning
Bitterness burning
She gave me love and all things concerning
I just called her Ma

Phyllis Lorraine could not sustain
Relationships, health, sobriety
Worked her face red, poor she'd remain
Passed down traits of neurotic variety

She was sorrowful and yearning
Bitterness burning
She gave me love and all things concerning
I just called her Ma
