All you mothers are cryin'
Cryin' night and day
Hmm, mothers are cryin'
Cryin' night and day
Because the troubles got your youngster
And they will send him far away
This is the sad sad hour
You know my story's true
Hmm, sad sad hour
You know my story's true
Better get on your knees and pray
'Cause that's the only thing to do
I want to tell all you wives
Just what you must do
Hmm, tell all you wives
Just what you must do
If you don't believe my story
You will feel the sad hour too
