I've never seen December
Look this bad before
The paper mill is closing
Death is on our shore
Minds are slowly turning
Brother don't come home
Father lies still coughing
Relieving us from pain
Oh, mother of mine
Release me from evil and show me a sign
Oh, mother of mine
The children are bleeding, please show me a sign
Oh, mother of mine
We stood by our union
Holding up the flag
The union stood by watching
While we buried dad
Mother doesn't talk now
Only to her soul
Children, hungry children
Let the people know
Oh, mother of mine
Release me from evil and show me a sign
Oh, mother of mine
Release me from evil and show me a sign
Oh, mother of mine
Christmas was upon us
Everyone was there
Christmas was upon us
With nothing left to share
The church was holding service
Ringing out a bell
We all prayed for mercy
Take us from this hell
Oh, mother of mine
Your children are bleeding, please show them a sign
Oh, mother of mine
Release me from evil and show me a sign
Oh, mother of mine
Release me from evil and show me a sign
Oh, mother of mine
