Every Mother's Son

[Verse 1]

Well I've been riding a winning horse, for a long, long time

Sometimes I wonder, is this the end of the line

No one should take advantage, of who they are

No man has got it made

If he thinks he does, he's wrong

[Chorus]

Every mother's son, better hear what I say

Every mother's son, will rise and fall someday

[Verse 2]

I've seen it happen so many times, so many times before

Some man's got so much money, he doesn't worry no more

Or he's got such a pretty woman, that'll treat him fine

Well my friend has been a fool

It happens everytime

[Chorus]

Every mother's son, better hear what I say

Every mother's son, will rise and fall someday

[Verse 3]

I'm not trying to preach to no one, to no one at all

I've seen so many of my good friends, just rise to fall

'Cause they got so much money, or a woman so fine

Well my friends have all been fools, it happens every time

[Chorus]

Every mother's son, better hear what I say

Every mother's son, will rise and fall someday

[Bridge]

What I say

[Chorus]

Every mother's son, better hear what I say

Every mother's son, will rise and fall someday

[Outro]

What I say

Oh, every mother's son will rise and fall someday
