Lyrics
Mama mama
I call out to you
Mama mama
Lady in Blue
Worn out leather shoes
Pretty black hair
ou were left alone by the raging river there
Raging river
The gutter and all its grime
Can't hide the beauty left behind
A garden for those inclined
to dig until you find
Dig until you find
Mama mama I call out to you
Mama mama Lady in Blue
Worn out leather shoes
Pretty black hair
You were left alone
To find your way out there
Find your way out there
I call you from this darkness
I call out into the night
I wait to feel the healing hands
and rest these tired eyes
Rest these tired eyes
Mama mama I call out to you
Mama mama Lady in Blue
Lady in Blue
Lady in Blue
