Mama's Song - 2005 Digital Remaster
Mama raised seven children all alone
Workin' hard every day, all day long
Through the days, through the years
There was sorrow and tears
But Mama kept singin' a song
And she'd go
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Memories of my childhood linger on
Of that poor little shack we call home
How when trouble got us down
After supper we'd gathered around
And Mama would sing us a song
And she'd go
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Here I am a thousand miles away from home
The one I love said goodbye, now he's gone
Though he meant the world to me
Life's too short for misery
So I think I'll sing Mama's song
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm
Workin' hard every day, all day long
Through the days, through the years
There was sorrow and tears
But Mama kept singin' a song
And she'd go
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Memories of my childhood linger on
Of that poor little shack we call home
How when trouble got us down
After supper we'd gathered around
And Mama would sing us a song
And she'd go
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Here I am a thousand miles away from home
The one I love said goodbye, now he's gone
Though he meant the world to me
Life's too short for misery
So I think I'll sing Mama's song
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm
