Something's on my mind
Mother dear, the boy keeps me crying
Don't know which way to turn
Keeps me so confused
Keeps me so confused
Mother dear, calls for him iron
But he treats your daughter bad
Keeps your daughter sad
I wish I didn't love him so
Cause now I can't let him go
Each kiss gets a little sweeter
Ooh, my heart gets a little weaker
I'm falling deeper, deeper
In love each day
He is no good for me
But I can't break away
Ooh, each day love gets a little stronger
Ooh, heartaches last a little longer
Mother dear
All my love to him I'd give
Without him around
I couldn't live, I need him so
And he knows I can't let him go
And I've shown many times I've tried
Telling him we're through
But when he takes me in his arms
There's nothing I can do
Boy, it's no use
I can't break loose
I keep loving him more and more and more
Each passing day
Help me mother dear
I'm so in love with him
But he treats your daughter bad
He keeps your daughter sad
I'm calling mother dear
I'm falling in love with him
But he treats your daughter bad
He keeps your daughter sad
Help me mother dear
I'm calling, help me mother dear
He treats your daughter bad
He keeps your daughter sad
I'm calling mother dear
I'm falling in love with him
