Mother Revolution (Live) [Hammersmith Apollo, 04/06/05]

[Verse 1]

Lucky me, I guessed the kind of man that you would turn out to be

Now I wish that I'd been wrong and then I could remember to breathe

[Pre-Chorus]

And all along the watchtower

The night horses and the black mares

Ready themselves for the outcome

For the strange times upon us

[Chorus]

But what you didn't count on

Was another mother of

A Mother Revolution

But what you didn't count on

Was another mother of

A Mother Revolution

[Post-Chorus]

You could've had me, you could've had me

You could've had me right there beside you

You could've had me, boy, you could've had me, yeah

You could've had me right there beside you

[Verse 2]

A wife on loan in a cafe in old El Paso

Next I go to Seven Gates and my sister's bass bonanza

[Pre-Chorus]

And all along her watchtower

The night horses and the black mares

Steady themselves for the outcome

For the strange days upon us

[Chorus]

What you didn't count on

Was another mother of

A Mother Revolution

But what you didn't count on

Was another mother of

A Mother Revolution

[Post-Chorus]

You could've had me, you could've had me

You could've had me right there beside you

You could've had me, boy, you could've had me

You could've had me right there beside you

[Outro]

What you didn't count on

Was another mother of

A Mother Revolution
