Pushin' Forward Back

Mother, mother found me on her step

Gracious mother held me to her breast

until the day I started pushin'

Too late to cry she turned away

I started pushin'

I found a future in this like



I started pushin', pushin'

pushin' forward back

I was pushin', pushin'

pushin' forward back

I was pusin', pushin'

pushin' forward back

I was pushin', pushin'

pushin' forward back



Baby brother clinging to her hair

Gracious mother bleeding out

another soul to bear. He started pushin'

All my kings have fallen down

I started pushin'

Fallen mirrors paved the ground



Falling down. I know,

I know I'll never drown, drown, drown

Falling down. I know,

I know I'll never drown, drown, drown



Oh, I was pushin'
