Dear old mama, I got news for you
Got a steel-toe heart and a bad tattoo
Sorry mama, I ain’t been in touch
But I ran out of money, gambled all my luck

Oh, and mama thought that I’d been blessed
Got to tell you about this boy I met
He had sweet blue eyes, the kind you can’t forget
Set my soul on fire and then he left

Save me, I can’t get enough of you
Save me, I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me, gonna hit the road tonight
Before I lose my mind

Save me, I can’t get enough of you
Save me, I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me, gonna hit the road tonight
Before I lose my mind

Dear old mama, now the time has come
Emptied out my pockets and my hope is gone
‘Cause he took my heart and turned it inside out
So I pack my bags and I’m leaving town

Save me, I can’t get enough of you
Save me, I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me, gonna hit the road tonight
Before I lose my mind

Save me, I can’t get enough of you
Save me, I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me, gonna hit the road tonight
Before I lose my mind

Oh, save me
Oh, save me

Dear old mama, I got news for you
got a steel-toe heart and a bad tattoo
Sorry mama, I ain’t been in touch
But I ran out of money, gambled all my luck

Save me (Save me)
Save me (Save me)
(Save me) Oh

Save me, I can’t get enough of you
Save me, I can tell you I’ve been blue
Save me, gonna hit the road tonight
Before I lose my mind
Before I lose my mind
