'"HE'S A BOY WHO LOOKS LIKE HIS MOTHER"
AND I AM NEVER FAR FROM HIS SIDE.
FOR IT'S BEEN SAID THAT I HAVE LOST ANOTHER
AND THIS TIME I WON'T LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN.
ON THE MORNING THAT HE WAS TAKEN FROM ME
A BLUE LIGHT APPEARED IN THE SKY
NO GUN COULD HAVE STOPPED WHAT TRANSPIRED
SO I WROTE THIS PINE BOX LULLABY
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
SATNIN'!
HE CALLS ME SATNIN
HE CALLS ME SATNIN
HE CALLS ME LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
PEOPLE LIKE TO ASK ME HOW IM DOING
AS IF I COULD TELL THEM HOW I FEEL
HAVE YOU EVER HAD SOMETHING DEAD TAKEN FROM YOU
THEN BEEN HANDED SOMETHING TWICE AS REAL
YOU KNOW THAT I AM SO DOGGONE IN LOVE WITH YOU
THAT I COULD NEVER TELL US MUCH APART
YOU DONT NEED TO WRITE DOWN WORDS SON, JUST SING SONGS
TO THE LITTLE BOY WHO'S BURIED IN MY HEART
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
SATNIN'!
HE CALLS ME SATNIN
HE CALLS ME SATNIN
HE CALLS ME LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
WE KILLED ALL THE INDIANS AND NAMED PLACES FOR THEM
AND I WAS BORN IN PONTOTOC IN 1912
I'M JUST A LITTLE MUDHOLE IN MISSISSIPPI
AND MY GOD GIVEN MAIDEN NAME IS LOVE
I'M GONNA LIE ABOUT MY AGE CAUSE I'M A WOMAN
I'M TAKING OFF FOUR YEARS FOR THE THINGS I'VE DONE
I MARRIED THE MOST GORGEOUS MAN IN VERONA
AND I GAVE BIRTH TO HIS MOST HANDSOME SONS
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
HE MEANS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
SATNIN'!
HE CALLS ME SATNIN
HE CALLS ME SATNIN
HE CALLS ME LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
