If I Lose My Mind

Mama, it's so good to be back home again

I'm so proud to see that you are looking well

Yes, I know that I look a little weary

Oh, but Mama, I have been through living hell

You know how much I've always loved him, Mama

But he done things to me I couldn't understand

Why, he made me watch him love another woman

And he tried to make me love another man

Mama, can I be your little girl again?

I need you now even more than I did then

And I need a lot of love and understanding

And a lot of time to get me over him

If I lose my mind, Mama, I wanna be here with you

Have them lock me up and see I have good care

But I just couldn't stand his torture any longer

I was afraid of what I'd do if I stayed there
