            Oh Mama say you're gonna live forever!

            Oh Mama tell me you'll always be by my side!

            Oh Mama through good and bad times!

            Oh Mama you've been there!

            Say you'll always be there,

            Oh Mama!

For nine months you carried me in pain

You could have thrown me away

But you took the burden of raising me

You took all the heartaches and the misery

What would I be without you

How could i have made it without you

All my thanks goes to you

I congratulate you!

            Chorus

For fifteen years we went through life together

With all the quarrels and fights I just wanted to get out of here

Now I'm on my own got to settle down

My dumb pride says not to turn around

Sorry it had to turn out this way

I know I'll run back to you someday

And I hope I'll hear you say

"Kneel down and pray!"

After all the falls from my bicycle

You picked me up and dressed those bruises

Whenever I was sad

You would fix it with your embrace

Sorry that i made you worry

Sorry that I made you cry

Now I'm on my own after that major fight

Let's give it another try

            Chorus

You're the only one I can turn to

Not even my girl understand me, only you

Before it seemed hard to say it but now I can shout it

OH MAMA I LOVE YOU!
