Momma, Look Sharp Lyrics
[COURIER]
Momma, hey momma
Come lookin' for me
I'm here in the meadow
By the red maple tree
Momma, hey momma
Look sharp, here I be
Hey, hey
Momma, look sharp
Them soldiers, they fired
Oh, ma, did we run
But then we turned 'round
And the battle begun
Then I went under
Oh, ma, am I done?
Hey, hey
Momma, look sharp
My eyes are wide open
My face to the sky
Is that you I'm hearin'
In the tall grass nearby?
Momma, come find me
Before I do die
Hey, hey
Momma, look sharp
[COURIER, ANDREW MCNAIR & LEATHER APRON]
I'll close your eyes, my Billy
Them eyes that cannot see
And I'll bury ya, my Billy
Beneath the maple tree
[COURIER]
And never again
Will you whisper to me
Hey, hey
Oh, Momma, look sharp
Momma, hey momma
Come lookin' for me
I'm here in the meadow
By the red maple tree
Look sharp, here I be
Hey, hey
Momma, look sharp
Oh, ma, did we run
But then we turned 'round
And the battle begun
Oh, ma, am I done?
Hey, hey
Momma, look sharp
My face to the sky
Is that you I'm hearin'
In the tall grass nearby?
Before I do die
Hey, hey
Momma, look sharp
I'll close your eyes, my Billy
Them eyes that cannot see
And I'll bury ya, my Billy
Beneath the maple tree
And never again
Will you whisper to me
Hey, hey
Oh, Momma, look sharp
