Song information
Song about a loving child saving her Mama. I am told that there's similarities with Nick Cave's Jubilee Street. Neal Gilbertson (Jibes) helped me clean this track up. But I could give him credit somehow here.

Lyrics
Freedom For Mama
© Stan Loh July 10, 2006  Song about a dancer and prostitute who does it to save her mom.
Verse 1
She’s only sixteen,
She’s tall, cool and lean,
Her freckles etched a charming face,
Her body keeping pace,
Lip stick and rouge divine,
Rhinestones and intertwines,
She waits for the after dark in moonlit supper time. 
Chorus
After the ball, she peels off her pride,
The men will follow wherever she slides,
Fireman’s pole, tracking shifty eyes,
Luring for dollars, their silver required.
Verse 2
When she wakes she’ll count them,
And she’ll never condemn,
The sources of her revenue,
It hurts what she has to do,
She pays the oncologist,
Who prescribed a variable list,
Freedom for mama, she’s wasting in bed. 
Bridge
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom for mama,
Oh Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom for mama…
Oh Lord don’t take her, don’t take her away,
…She prays long everyday.
Instrumental  Bm   Em7/  Bm   Em7   Bm
Verse 3
Mama doesn’t know,
She’ll part with April snow,
Her daughter dances secretly,
While doctors disagree,
The paid up pharmacist,
Concocted healing list,
Freedom for mama as she slides into bed. 
(Repeat Chorus)  Em   A   G   DMaj7   Em7/  Em7   E7.

This is great Stan. We've missed you here. Sometimes songs don't need much more than what you've done.
