and various other artists



Everything is 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 all alone
Here's what you'll keep saying 
When you're far from home

Mammy
Mammy 
The sun shines east, the sun shines west
I know where the sun shines best
Mammy
My little mammy
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy
I'm comin'
Sorry that I made you wait
I'm comin'
Hope and trust that I'm not late, oh oh oh 
Mammy
My little Mammy
I'd walk a million miles 
For one of your smiles
My Mammy! 
Oh oh oh... 

Mammy... 
My little Mammy
The sun shines east, the sun shines west
I know where
the sun shines best! 
It's on my Mammy I'm talkin' about, nobody else's! 

My little Mammy
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy

Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'
I'm so sorry that I made you wait! 
Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'! 
Oh God, I hope I'm not late! 
Look at me, Mammy! 
Don't you know me? 
I'm your little baby! 

I'd walk a million miles 
For one of your smiles
My Mammy!
