words and music by Graham Nash
В© 1975 Thin Ice Music (ASCAP)
The horns in the fog could be heard if not seen
helping to guide the blind in a dream
And down by the seashore, a banquet she gave
She was feeding and needing a soul she could save
Mama lion, mama lion, IЕ’m starting to sink
beneath the sunshine and the icicles
in the things that you think
ThereЕ’s a hole in my destiny
and IЕ’m out on the brink
Mama lion, mama lion
She bounces off the boulders, she runs on the rocks
SheЕ’s taking her time from her grandfather clocks
And over the border, and down on the land
SheЕ’s living in the future
and it lies in her hand
Mama lion, mama lion, IЕ’m starting to sink
beneath the sunshine and the icicles
in the things that you think
ThereЕ’s a hole in my destiny
and IЕ’m out on the brink
Mama lion, mama lion
Mama lion, mama lion, IЕ’m starting to sink
beneath the sunshine and the icicles
in the things that you think
ThereЕ’s a hole in my destiny
and IЕ’m out on the brink
Mama lion, mama lion
