lyrics

“She doesn't love me”
He told me over the phone
I was sitting in a parking lot
Trying to hitchhike home
Something in her collapsed
Like an animal made of stone
I said she loves you
But not through and through
I said she loves you
But not the way I do

Your momma doesn't like you much
But I’ll love you the same
Your momma doesn't like you much
But you’re not the one to blame

You came home with a few tattoos
Cos there’s nothing better to do
Your brother got a scholarship
She said why can’t you be like him too
you sleep at the punk house
and fight the other guys
hoping the blood will make what’s in you die
I said she loves you
but not enough to protect you
I said she loves you
but not the way I do

Your momma doesn't like you much
But I’ll love you the same
Your momma doesn't like you much
But you’re not the one to blame
Cos love is what you give
And not what you get

She said you're never gonna find someone
you’re just another fool
Lost you on the way
From Colorado to LA
But one day I found you
Haunting what we left behind
Cos she loves you
But not the way I do

Your momma doesn't like you much
But I’ll love you the same
Your momma doesn't like you much
But you’re not the one to blame
Cos love is what you give
And not what you get
