Daniel Romano - Middle Child Lyrics
I was left alone,A long time agoBy my mother who I never got to knowI was left alone,A long time agoBy my mother who I never got to knowFaded memories of my lifeHave been washed in whiskey nightsAnd I’m living at the bottom of the bottleI’ve spent my life on a bar stool all aloneNever knowing why she sent me from my homeWas there something wrong with me?That no one else could seeWhat’s the reasonOnly I got turned away[Chorus]Mama please tell me whyYou would leave just me behindYou sent me off and then you went and have my brothersBefore me, a little girlAnd they’re the center of your worldMama tell me why’d you leave the middle child?I should’ve gone back homeAnd ask her to her faceBut my lines become due much of a disgraceAnd I got the news todaySaying mama passed awaySo I’ll never know the reason I’m alone[Chorus]Mama please tell me whyYou would leave just me behindYou sent me off and then you went and have my brothersBefore me, a little girlAnd they’re the center of your worldMama tell me why’d you leave the middle child?Mama tell me why’d you leave the middle child?
