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!
