You think you'll come over
I'll give you my number
You lover, supporter
Then give me a mother
You come take me home and
Take me to your doctor
You think you'll come over?

I think I'm a mother

Roll over, roll over
And roll me a man-a
You lover, my lover
You just roll me over
You give me a mother
A man if I love her
I love her, I'll keep her
I better just keep her

Come on and support her
I said to the mother
She said you come over
She said she'd supporter her
I love her, I kept her
And then she just left and
Alone, I implore ya

I think I'm a mother

Need a mother
More than ever
Need a mother

Ah... Ah...

    Song Meaning

    "I know a lot of people are going to think it's about abortion, or wanting to be a mother or something like that, but it really is none of those things. It's more just me wanting some kind of protection and care, then wanting to offset something else that's unsettling." /PJ Harvey/
