My Mammy

Everything is lovely

When you start to roam;

The birds are singin', the day that you stray,

But later, when you are further away,

Things won't seem so lovely

When you're all alone;

Here's what you'll keep saying

When you're far from home:

Mammy,

Mammy,

The sun shines east, the sun shines west,

I know where the sun shines best

Mammy,

My little mammy,

My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy.

I'm comin',

Sorry that I made you wait.

I'm comin',

Hope and trust that I'm not late, oh oh oh

Mammy,

My little Mammy,

I'd walk a million miles

For one of your smiles,

My Mammy! Oh oh oh

Mammy

My little Mammy.

The sun shines east, the sun shines west,

I know where, the sun shines best!

It's on my Mammy I'm talkin' about, nobody else's!

My little Mammy,

My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy.

Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin',

I'm so sorry that I made you wait!

Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'!

Oh God, I hope I'm not late!

Look at me, Mammy! Don't you know me?

I'm your little baby!

I'd walk a million miles

For one of your smiles,

My Mammy!
