Here comes countdown
she's gone, gone, gone
Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready
got my eyes wide open
Ever since I was on cripples Monday
got my eyeballs on my knees, okay, baby, walk it
I rapped for hours with mad Mary Williams
she said she never understood a word from me, because -
I know that she cares about me
I heard her call my name
And I know she's long dead and gone
still it ain't the same
When I wake up in the morning, mama
I heard her call my name
I know she's dead and long far gone
I heard her call my name
and I felt my mind split open
Here comes countdown
she's gone, gone, gone
Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready
got my eyes wide open
Ever since I was on cripples Monday
got my eyeballs on my knees
I rapped for hours with mad Mary Williams
she said she never understood a word from me, oh
I know she cares about me
I heard her call my name, walk it, baby, now
I said she's long dead and gone
still it ain't the same ....
When I wake up in the morning, mama
I heard her call my name, gone, gone
I know she's dead and long far gone
still I heard her call my name
and my mind split open
