Mother Revolution
Lucky me, I guessed the kind of man
That you would turn out to be
Now I wish that I'd been wrong and then
I could remember to breathe
And all along the watchtower
The night horses and the black mares
Ready themselves for the outcome
For the strange times upon us
But what you didn't count on
Was another mother of
A mother revolution
But what you didn't count on
Was another mother of
A mother revolution
You could have had me
You could have had me
You could have had me right there, beside you
You could have had me, boy
You could have had me, yeah
You could have had me right there, beside you
A wife on loan in a cafe
In old El Paso
Next I go to Seven Gates
And my sister's Bass Bonanza
And all along her watchtower
The night horses and the black mares
Steady themselves for the outcome
For the strange days upon us
What you didn't count on
Was another mother of
A mother revolution
But what you didn't count on
Was another mother of
A mother revolution
You could have had me
You could have had me
You could have had me right there, beside you
You could have had me, boy
You could have had me, yeah
You could have had me right there, beside you
What you didn't count on
Was another mother of
A mother revolution
Madre Revolución
Afortunadamente, adiviné el tipo de hombre
Que resultarías ser
Ahora desearía haberme equivocado y entonces
Podría recordar respirar
Y a lo largo de la torre de vigilancia
Los caballos nocturnos y las yeguas negras
Se preparan para el desenlace
Para los extraños tiempos que nos rodean
Pero en lo que no contabas
Era con otra madre de
Una madre revolución
Pero en lo que no contabas
Era con otra madre de
Una madre revolución
Podrías haberme tenido
Podrías haberme tenido
Podrías haberme tenido justo ahí, a tu lado
Podrías haberme tenido, chico
Podrías haberme tenido, sí
Podrías haberme tenido justo ahí, a tu lado
Una esposa prestada en un café
En el viejo El Paso
Luego voy a Siete Puertas
Y la Bonanza de Bajo de mi hermana
Y a lo largo de su torre de vigilancia
Los caballos nocturnos y las yeguas negras
Se preparan para el desenlace
Para los extraños días que nos rodean
En lo que no contabas
Era con otra madre de
Una madre revolución
Pero en lo que no contabas
Era con otra madre de
Una madre revolución
Podrías haberme tenido
Podrías haberme tenido
Podrías haberme tenido justo ahí, a tu lado
Podrías haberme tenido, chico
Podrías haberme tenido, sí
Podrías haberme tenido justo ahí, a tu lado
En lo que no contabas
Era con otra madre de
