Mama
Oh please don't cry because your boy must leave you
Mama
Oh please don't let the separations grieve you
Your little boy is growing
But don't be down when his going
Nothing can ever replace
The warmth of your tender embrace
Mama
The day will come we'll be together once more
Oh my dear mama then will be happy and as gay as before
When ev'ning shadows are falling and lovely day time is a past
The I'm the hours recalling
When in your arms I did rest
Mama I don't want to see your tears
Take of the happiest years
Mama
Oh please don't cry
Because your boy must leave you
Mama
Oh please don't let the separations
Grieve you
Your little boy is growing
But don't be down when his going
Nothing can ever replace
The warmth of your tender embrace
Mama
The day will come we'll be together once more
Oh my dear mama then we'll be happy and as gay as before
Mama
Mama
