Got no time for foolin' with you baby
Your stupid game is about to end
You played it out, thought you had it made
And it looks like someone passed you by again
I left her standin' in her corner
She told me she was tryin' to find her way
I've got to leave before I get much older
'Cause she ain't moved in nearly forty days
I've got a woman that's treatin' me better
She takes her time and she ain't so cruel
I've got someone to take you over
Your mother ain't so bad, what happened to you?
Your stupid game is about to end
You played it out, thought you had it made
And it looks like someone passed you by again
I left her standin' in her corner
She told me she was tryin' to find her way
I've got to leave before I get much older
'Cause she ain't moved in nearly forty days
I've got a woman that's treatin' me better
She takes her time and she ain't so cruel
I've got someone to take you over
Your mother ain't so bad, what happened to you?

This song, along with Red House by Jimi have the same blues punchline. In this one he goes with her mom, but in Red House it's the sister.
Kinda disturbing that she hasn't moved in forty days. Is he sitting with her corpse after he killed her . . . or just doing Tibetan Tantric meditation (Chöd)?
Anyway, great song with climactic ending!
@NomadMonad I think she hasn’t moved because she’s lying around doped up. I think the daughter is hooked on drugs and unbearable to live with.
