Lyrics
so i just think i ll sing my mama s song
Here i am a thousand miles, through the years Mama', the girl i loved said goodbye
Here i am a thousand miles, mama raised up my childhood
Mama kept on singing a song, filled with sorrow and tears, filled with sorrow and tears
and she d go mmm
We called home, mama kept on singing a song, all day long
Thought she meant the world to me life s too short for misery, through the days, so i just think i ll sing my mama s song
Through the years, linger on of that poor little shack
All day long, working hard every day
mama kept on singing a song
Here i am a thousand miles, after supper we d gather round Joe, and she d go mmm
And mama would sing us a song, and she d go mmm, mama raised seven children
mama raised up my childhood
Thought she meant the world to me life s too short for misery, working hard every day, here i am a thousand miles
mama raised seven children
So i just think i ll sing my mama s song, away from home
Mama kept on singing a song, and how when troubles got us down, here i am a thousand miles
and how when troubles got us down
Filled with sorrow and tears, after supper we d gather round Song, and she d go mmm
Filled with sorrow and tears, and she d go mmm
Now she s gone, filled with sorrow and tears, linger on of that poor little shack
now she s gone
All day long, linger on of that poor little shack
After supper we d gather round, linger on of that poor little shack
The girl i loved said goodbye, mama kept on singing a song, mama kept on singing a song
we called home
Let me sing now, let me sing now
Mama raised seven children, now she s gone
and she d go mmm
here i am a thousand miles
Mama raised seven children, linger on of that poor little shack Joe, mama raised seven children
Filled with sorrow and tears, thought she meant the world to me life s too short for misery Mama', all day long
And how when troubles got us down, filled with sorrow and tears
After supper we d gather round, mama raised up my childhood
All day long, mama kept on singing a song Song, and how when troubles got us down
and she d go mmm
Let me sing now, now she s gone, through the days
so i just think i ll sing my mama s song
Away from home, now she s gone
And mama would sing us a song, filled with sorrow and tears Joe, away from home
Through the years, let me sing darling
Here i am a thousand miles, and how when troubles got us down, and how when troubles got us down
And she d go mmm, all day long, all day long
here i am a thousand miles
through the days
Now she s gone, through the years
Filled with sorrow and tears, away from home, thought she meant the world to me life s too short for misery
