Hey Mommy
Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocent
My mother would lift me high
And dance with my father and me in bed
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
Now I knew for sure
I was loved
If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with her
I'd play a song that would never, never end
How I'd love, love, love
To dance with my mother again
When I and my father would disagree
She'd get my way, I would run
From him to her
She'd make me laugh just to comfort me
Then finally make me do
Just what my papa said
Later that night when I fell asleep
She left a dollar under my sheath
Never dreamed that she
Would be gone for me
If I could steal
One final glance
One final step
One final step
One final dance with her
I'd play a song that would never, never end
How I'd love, love, love
To dance with my mother again
Sometimes I listen outside my door
And hear my father crying for her
I pray for him even more than I do now


I pray for him even more than I do now
I pray for him every night
I pay for him even more than I do now
Every night I fall asleep
To dance with my mother again
To dance with my mother again
Just to dance with my mother again
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I would laugh at him
to dance, dance with her again, just to dance with my mother again, just to dance with my
mother again.
