Story behind the song
Just my fictional interpretation of the ultimate matriarch holding together the ever-so-common dysfunctional family. I just thought the whole needle and thread motif was fitting.
Lyrics
Pa couldn’t get nothing right – he was always told he would never amount Not to anything or to anyone, so when he had a son he just run Junior didn’t come home at night – he was always out looking for the next fight Over anything – against anyone, but at the end of his fun was a gun [Chorus] And mama said, get me a needle and thread – And I’ll sow this life back together My old heart is torn, and my soul is worn – But the Lord is my friend And this life He’ll mend to the end … To the end Mama was as true as the light – She was always the one holding so tight Onto everything and to everyone – she prayed every morn to the Son [Chorus] And mama said, get me a needle and thread – And I’ll sow this life back together My old heart is torn, and my soul is worn – But the Lord is my friend And this life He’ll mend to the end … To the end
