St. Teresa Lyrics

St. Teresa

I heard you're coming to town
Your little footsteps

Make the sweetest sound

They come to put me down

Come to put me down down down

Mother is it ok if I call you mama?

My own walked away when I broke the law

And standing on the bridge

Feeling like falling

Would you pray for me mama?

St. Teresa

Have mercy on my soul

The good must die young

That's why I'm getting so old

They come to put me down

They come to put me down down down
Mother is it ok if I call you mama ?

My own walked away when I broke the law

And standing on the bridge feeling like falling

Would you pray for me mama?

I was never good at confession

Never really that good at anything at all

And they don't want me hanging around the mission

Singing hallelujah

Singing hallelujah

St. Teresa
Could I kiss your skin?

Come a little closer

To this hell I'm living in

When they put me down

When they put me down

Mother is it ok if I call you mama?

My own walked away when I broke the law

And standing on the bridge

Feeling like falling

Would you pray for me mama?

Would you pray for me mama?

Would you stay with me mama?

And keep singing hallelujah

Mama
