Lyrics for My Bitter Seed
My mother told me, use my bitter seed My mother told me, you the one I need And that's why baby, honey, you misery You've gone from rags to riches, silver to gold When they made you they throw away the mold She told me, use my bitter seed And that's why baby, honey you misery Baby, baby you the one I need Baby, baby you just wait an'see For you pretty baby, I'll swim the deep blue sea
