lirik lagu my mama’s house – janis ian
[verse 1]
in my mama’s house, the men were many
they stood in a line outside the door
when i was a kid, they gave me candy
and seash*lls from the ocean
they’d stolen from the shore
[verse 2]
they came like princes to the wedding
they left like sailors on the hill
when i was younger, i was ready
to receive them in the luxury
of my driftwood heart and still
[chorus]
i never wantеd for affection
i never needеd any more
all my fathers — my reflection
like the moon reflects the shore
love came in a wave and it struck like an ocean
like a tide it pulled me out to sea
mama’s house is gone
but her devotion lingers on
in the back pages of my memory
[verse 3]
now i live my life in splendor
like some d*ch*ss or a queen
but every morning, i remember
when the sea breeze strikes and gathers
what that woman meant to me
[chorus]
i never wanted for affection
i never needed any more
all my fathers — my reflection
like the moon reflects the shore
love came in a wave and it struck like an ocean
like a tide it pulled me out to sea
mama’s house is gone
but her devotion lingers on
in the back pages of my memory
[outro]
ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh
