I've got the blues for mammy
And mammy's got the blues for me
I have been wondering ever so long
But now I am homing that's where I belong

I wonder why I've wasted all of these years
But now I cry I'm not ashamed of my tears
For I've got the blues for mammy
And mammy's got the blues for me

Now, I've got the blues for mammy
And mammy's got the blues for me
I have been wondering ever so long
But now I am homing that's where I belong
