Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
Mama, the angels
Who made me so sad
Mama who bore me
Mama who gave me
No way to handle things
Who made me so sad
Mama, the weeping
Mama, the angels
No sleep in Heaven,
Or Bethlehem
Some pray that one day,
Christ will come a-calling
They light a candle
And hope that it glows
Some just lie there crying,
For him to come and find them
But when he comes,
They don't know how to go
Mama who bore me
(Mama who bore me)
Mama who gave me
(Mama who gave me)
Mama, the angels
(No way to handle things)
Mama
(Who made me so bad)
Mama the weeping
(Mama the weeping)
Mama, the angels
(Mama, the angels)
Mama
No sleep in Heaven or Bethlehem
