Mama

Who's the one who tied your shoe when you were young

And knew just when to come and see what you had done?

Mama, oh Mama

And who's the one who patched your eye and told you not to cry

'cause he was too big for you to try?

Mama, Ma-a-ma

And who's the one you didn't need to plead

To give her time to the Little League?

It was Mama, oh, ma-a-a-ma-a-a

And who's the one who gave her shoulder

When you told her your first love was over she'd met someone older

Mama, Mama
