- My Mammy LyricsEverything seems 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 far from home;
Here's what you'll keep saying
When you're allalone:
Mammy,
Mammy,
The sun shines east, the sun shines west,
But I know where the sun shines best--
Mammy,
Mammy,
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy.
I'm, I'm a comin,
Sorry that I made you wait.
I'm, I'm a comin,
I Hope and trust that I'm not late,
Mammy,
I'm talkin about my mammy,
I'd walk a million miles
For one of your smiles,
My Mammy! My Mammy! ah ah ah...
(SPOKEN) Mammy...
My little Mammy.
The sun shines east-- the sun shines west--
Bit 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'--
Oh I hope I didn't make you wait!
Mammy-- Mammy, I'm comin'!
Oh God, I hope I'm not late!
Look at me, Mammy!ah ah ah, Don't you know me?
I't's your little baby!
(SUNG) I'd walk a million miles
For one of your smiles,
My Mammy!
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 far from home;
Here's what you'll keep saying
When you're allalone:
Mammy,
Mammy,
The sun shines east, the sun shines west,
But I know where the sun shines best--
Mammy,
Mammy,
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy.
I'm, I'm a comin,
Sorry that I made you wait.
I'm, I'm a comin,
I Hope and trust that I'm not late,
Mammy,
I'm talkin about my mammy,
I'd walk a million miles
My Mammy! My Mammy! ah ah ah...
(SPOKEN) Mammy...
My little Mammy.
The sun shines east-- the sun shines west--
Bit 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'--
Oh I hope I didn't make you wait!
Mammy-- Mammy, I'm comin'!
Oh God, I hope I'm not late!
Look at me, Mammy!ah ah ah, Don't you know me?
I't's your little baby!
(SUNG) I'd walk a million miles
For one of your smiles,
My Mammy!
