If Mother Knew

Some said the dead know what the living is doing
With that thought, how I cannot agree
Cause if the dead knows what the living is doing
I know someone's worryin' over me

If my mother knew the [?]
I know she'd coming across to see me through
She would cross that little joy [?]
And hold my hand until the trouble's through

Ah, oh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ah, oh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ah, yeah (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ah, oh (if mother knew, if mother knew)

Ah, you see those tears on my face
Rolling from the corner of my eye
That's because I am scared
I know my God wants me to die

I wanna go and see my Lord in Heaven
But I'm scared
I drink all night, all that's gone
I know that it's gonna be my mom

Ooh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ooh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ooh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Oh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)

Ooh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ooh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Ooh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)
Oh (if mother knew, if mother knew)
(if mother knew, if mother knew)

Some said the dead know what the living is doing (if mother knew, if mother knew)
With that thought, how I cannot agree (if mother knew, if mother knew)
Cause if the dead knows what the living is doing (if mother knew, if mother knew)
I know someone's worryin' over me (if mother knew, if mother knew)
