Lucky me
I guessed the kind of man
that you would turn out to be
Now I wish that I�d been
wrong and then
I could remember
to breathe
And all along the Watchtower
the night horses and
the black mares
ready themselves for the outcome
for the strange times
upon us
But what you didn�t count on
was another Mother of
a Mother Revolution
but what you didn�t count on
was another Mother of
a Mother Revolution
you could�ve had me
you could�ve had me
you could�ve had me
Right there beside you
you could�ve had me boy
you could�ve had me yeah
you could�ve had me
Right there beside you
A wife on loan
in a caf�
in old El Paso
Next I go to
Seven Gates and
my sister�s Bass Bonanza
And all along her Watchtower
the night horses and
the black mares
steady themselves for the outcome
for the strange days
upon us
What you didn�t count on
was another Mother of
a Mother Revolution
"Mother Revolution is core. Because the album centers very much around this idea that in order for there to be a continuance of life for the next generation, and the next generation, and the next generation the songs began to speak about if the masses didn't choose to listen to the needs of the next generation then the mothers would need to make a choice which was were the mothers ok about sending their sons off to a war that they may not believe in and I began to understand an internal revolution that is more powerful than thousands of solders, that there is an artillery of the soul and a resolve that I have seen in a concerned mother. The masters have spoken about the complexity of the hives that love living in the orchards I was drawn to it mainly because of the vine and the fruit and the transformation of life. Becoming a mother has brought me my greatest teacher. She is four and we're in communication, we're in harmony, we're in a balance of mother and daughter not me as the authority or her as the precocious child who is totally in control, which is true sometimes, but when we're in balance, we are sharing this dance this sonic dance that the songs have been trying to show me since I was little, but she through her, her music is beginning to show me. And that lives in The Orchard along with the Tree of Knowledge."
