Mama, Please Open Your Window

I was quite a dude,
I was young, rough and rude
And at night I just painted the town
Ridin' high with my friends,
Hopin' it never ends
But comin' home I was wearin' a frown

Chorus
Mama, please open your window
It's just me, it's Johnny, your son
Please help me somehow to get indoor
I can't do it, my keys all are gone
I did what i had to do but now I miss the clue
 It would've been a shame to go home
And Ma, please don't think of dad
He was the same kind of mad
It's easy to ramble and roam


And when I married that girl
I thought she was all my world
With nothing but love on my mind
It took time til I saw
We both had that same flaw
We just weren't  the marrying kind

Chorus

And some day I will be
An old man, you'll see
And I can't feel no joy anymore
Then I'll find my way
To the place where I'll stay
And afraid I shall knock on heaven's door

Chorus
