I should've listened to my brother Moran when he said
I was a fool, but it's too late now and I didn’t make the rules
Oh, God, please have mercy on me
I’m all alone in another man's city
I’m not askin’ for much just wanta go back home
See Mam and Dad and the boys, oh, God!
Just see Mam and Dad and the boys, oh, God!
