When Jack was born   He winked at Mom   Her pretty face    Was the first he saw      Was Jack wrong, cause he loved Mom?      Things weren't bad   Before they got worse   Momma pinched Jack    Until it hurt   Momma thought    Her boy was cursed      You leave, leave, leave that boy to me   Oh, Jack, I love him   You leave that boy to me   You leave, leave, leave that boy to me   I know his condition    And soon he'll be set free      Off at school   Jack was cruel   He'd become   The bully's bull   Was Jack wrong to mimic Mom?   And after school   From the corner stool   Mom was kissin'   On the golden rule   Jack had become a teacher's fool      You leave, leave, leave that man to me   Oh Mom I love you   And soon you will be free   With my will, my hands, like old Solomon   And in your honor, I'm gonna cut that man in half      All the lessons that Momma would teach   Books from Rome and ancient Greece   Men who pushed rocks from stony mountains   Turnin' one fish into five thousand   A king who went blind from a mother's love   Till a rage came over Jack   With Momma lyin' on her back   The one who taught him right from wrong   Who'd known better all along   She got rammed through when Jack killed his mom      Don't leave, don't leave, don't leave this world to me   Oh Mom I love you   I didn't mean to set you free   With my will, my hands, like old Solomon   Oh Mom I love you   I didn't mean to set you free      Was Jack wrong? (Jack killed Mom)   Was Jack wrong? (Jack killed Mom)   Was Jack wrong? (Jack killed Mom)      Jack killed Mom   Jack killed Mom   Jack killed Mom   Jack killed Mom   Jack killed Mom   Jack killed Mom      When Jack killed his mom
