Mammy Blue - Cherry Laine

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

I may be your forgotten child,

Who wandered off at twenty-one.

It’s sad to find myself at home,

Oh Mammy

If I could only hold your hand,

And say I’m sorry, yes I am.

I’m sure you really understand.

Oh Mammy

Where are you now?

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

The house we shared upon the hill,

Seems lifeless but it’s standing still,

And memories of my childhood days

Fill my mind…yea

I’ve seen enough of different lights,

Seen tired days and lonely nights,

And now without you by my side,

I’m lost.

How can I survive?

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

Nobody takes care of me,

Who loves me, who has time for me.

The walls look silent at my face,

Oh Mammy.

The sky is dark, the wind is rough,

And now I know what I have lost,

The house is not a home at all.

Oh Mammy, I’m leaving the future.

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy Blue

Oh Mammy, Oh Mammy Mammy Blue, Oh Mammy
