Oh, little baby, you'll never cry Nor will you hear a sweet lullaby
Oh, unborn child, if you only knew Just what your mama was planning to do
You're still clinging to the tree of life But soon you'll be cut off before you can arrive
Oh, unborn child, beginning to grow Inside your mama, but you'll never know
Oh, tiny bud, that grows in the womb Only to be crushed before you can bloom
Mama, stop, turn around Go back, think it over now
Oh
Oh no, mama, just let it be You'll never regret it, just wait and see
Think of all the great ones who gave everything That we might have life here, so please bear the pain
Mama, stop, turn around Go back, think it over now
So please
No, no, no, no, mama Just let it be, just let it be
You know everybody's saying, you better think it over, mama You better think it over, mama
Mama, you better think it over, mama Don't you hear me, mama?
You know everybody's saying, you better think it over, think it over, mama
Hey, listen to me, listen to me, mama
