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...
|
|
(SPOKEN) 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!
|
(SUNG) My little Mammy,
|
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy.
|
(SPOKEN) 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!
|
(SUNG) I'd walk a million miles
|
For one of your smiles,
|
My Mammy!
