[00:13.34]I was three years old
[00:14.96]sitting in the seat of a Greyhound bus
[00:18.15]My brother and me,
[00:20.65]Mama's tears falling like a Carolina rain
[00:24.21]
[00:25.96]Cause she pulled out a gun the night before
[00:28.59]Said he ain't gonna drink and hit me no more
[00:33.07]She pulled the trigger on my father
[00:35.03]in a moment's rain
[00:37.03]
[00:38.71]Thank God that gun wasn't loaded
[00:43.65]
[00:45.15]Didn't know where to go
[00:46.90]or how she'd survive
[00:48.28]Didn't care, anywhere
[00:49.29]
[00:49.99]but there that night
[00:51.73]
[00:53.04]Now she held her babies tight
[00:55.98]
[00:57.89]And we rode through the cold of the midnight blue
[01:00.96]She was scared, she was broke
[01:02.52]But all she knew was she was gonna do
[01:09.93]What she had to
[01:11.55]
[01:17.25]She got her a job in a trailer out west
[01:20.38]It wasn't much but she was doing her best
[01:24.30]Putting food on the table for her family
[01:27.43]
[01:29.90]But then one day I came home from school
[01:33.29]My Mama was crying alone in her room
[01:36.35]She said, I lost my job
[01:38.16]and we're gonna lose the trailer too
[01:41.54]
[01:42.66]And she got that volkswagon loaded
[01:47.91]
[01:48.97]Didn't know where to go
[01:50.66]or how she'd survive
[01:52.35]Didn't care, anywhere
[01:53.91]but there that night
[01:55.78]
[01:57.16]She held her babies tight
[01:59.85]
[02:01.91]And we rode through the cold of the midnight blue
[02:05.03]She was scared, she was broke
[02:06.60]But all she knew was she was gonna do
[02:12.35]
[02:14.47]What she had to
[02:16.66]
[02:21.35]Whenever things go wrong in my life
[02:24.35]I just think of her,
[02:25.91]what it took that night
[02:27.85]
[02:28.41]To get on that bus in a Carolina rain
[02:31.91]
[02:33.97]Didn't know where to go
[02:35.54]or how she'd survive
[02:37.08]Didn't care, anywhere
[02:38.65]but there that night
[02:41.02]She held her babies tight
[02:45.32]held her babies
[02:46.48]
[02:47.04]And we rode through the cold of the midnight blue
[02:49.77]She was scared, she was broke
[02:51.46]But all she knew was she was gonna do
[02:57.33]
[03:02.58]What she had to
[03:04.91]
[03:15.52]What she had to she had
[03:19.02]
[03:21.59]Yeah, yeah, ooooh,
[03:26.52]
[03:30.02]what she had to
[03:31.83]
[03:33.21]What she had to
