I don't think I know what's going on in your head tonight
I know you think of me but maybe not how I think of you
I know there's a life for us and I think you want it
But I don't think you're ready for me, just being honest
Oh Mama my heart is heavy, love is so filled with pain
Can you keep a secret I don't wanna give it all away
Oh Mama this life has hurt you and I wanna make it right
But look out Mama the rolling thunder love is no easy answer
Don't tell me like tomorrow's never gonna beat today
If we're not gonna last forever will we just fade away
And here's to the lonesome lovers hungry for affection
We all know what it's like to be singing the blues
Oh Mama my heart is heavy, love is so filled with pain
Can you keep a secret I don't wanna give it all away
Oh Mama I know this life has knocked you black and blue
Look out Mama the rolling thunder love is the great survivor
I'll surrender to my home
It is the rocky road
Home is it love or glory
Here we go
Tell me what's the story
Oh Mama
Love is the rolling thunder
So filled with pain
Are you gonna give it all away
Oh Mama my heart is heavy, love is so filled with pain
Can you keep a secret I don't wanna give it all away
Oh Mama I know this life has knocked you black and blue
Look out Mama the striking lightning yeah we're gonna set the World alight
Oh Mama
Here comes the rolling thunder
It is the rocky road
Love and glory here we go
Come on Mama what's the story
Oh Mama my heart is heavy, love is so filled with pain
Can you keep a secret I don't wanna give it all away
Oh Mama I know this life has knocked you black and blue
Look out Mama the rolling thunder love is the great survivor
Here comes the rolling thunder
This love is so filled with pain
Remember when the lightning strikes
We will be alright and on our way
