Ocean Of Tears - Big Maybelle

Momma, Momma

Save your drowning child

Won’t somebody please

Save a drowning child

Won’t somebody please

Save a drowning child

I’ve been treated so bad by my lover

Nobody know my troubles and fears

Everybody I cry like a drowning child

And sleep in an ocean of tears

Oh, somebody hear my pleas

Oh, somebody save me

I’ve been thinking about going to the river

For the river won’t drown my fears

Everynight I cry like a drowning child

And I sleep in a ocean of tears

Oh, oh, oh I never treated him wrong

Oh, oh, oh I never treated him wrong

I’m a young girl that’s had some trouble

Nobody knows my troubles and fears

Everybody I cry like a drowning child

And sleep in an ocean of tears

Oh, somebody hear my pleas

Oh, somebody save me

Momma, Momma

Save your drowning child
