“She was just 16 and all alone
when I came to be
So we grew up together
My mama child and me
Times were bad
and she was scared
But whenever I would cry
She’d calm my fears
and dry my tears
with a rock and roll lullaby”
Amazing acappella (no instruments, just voice) from the Belmont’s 1972 “Cigars, Acappella, Candy” album.
(The image for the video is mistaken, this was the Belmonts singing solo.)
