Little Victories - The Jayhawks

Mother, oh mother

Where do I begin?

Faces I remember

Places I have been

Shoulders to cry on

Another’s hand to hold

Miss your sweet comfort

As I’m growing old

Did you ever feel so all alone?

Did you fight the darkness on your own?

They’re mine, all mine

Little victories are mine

One more bottle of wine

Father, dear father

Help me understand

Tobacco-stained fingers

Whiskey in your hand

Did you ever feel so all alone?

Did you fight the darkness on your own?

They’re mine, all mine

Little victories are mine

One more bottle of wine

Brother, oh brother

Morgan prepared the pews

Preacher, a teacher

A crutch that I could use

Did you ever feel so all alone?

Did you fight the darkness on your own?

They’re mine, all mine

Little victories are mine

They’re mine, all mine

Little victories are mine
