Текст песни St. Teresa - Beth Hart

Saint Teresa, I heard you're coming to town
Your little footsteps make the sweetest sound
They come to put me down
Come to put me down, down, down
Mother, is it okay if I call you Mama?
Owen walked away when I broke the law
Standing on the bridge, feeling like falling
Would you pray for me, Mama?

Saint Teresa, have mercy on my soul
The good must die young, that's why I'm getting so old
They come to put me down
Come to put me down, down, down

Mother, is it okay if I call you Mama?
Owen walked away when I broke the law
Standing on the bridge, feeling like falling
Would you pray for me, Mama?

And I was never good at confession
Never really that good an honest man at all
They don't want me hanging around the mission
Singing Hallelujah
Singing Hallelujah

Saint Teresa, could I kiss your skin?
Come a little closer to this hell I'm living in
And when they put me down
When they put me down

Mother, is it okay if I call you Mama?
Owen walked away when I broke the law
Standing on the bridge, feeling like falling
Would you pray for me, Mama?

Would you pray for me, Mama?
Would you stay with me, Mama?
And keep singing Hallelujah
Mama
