Mama

C
Mama, just had to call, oh Mama
                                           F
Your baby boy just had his heart broken in two,
               C              Am       D       G   G7
She said we're through but to send her best to you.

C
Oh Mama, I'd like to run to you Mama
                                                                          F
I'd come home today, leave right away but things won't work that way
                     C    Am   D       G
Gotta stay, and be a man, if I can, Oh Mama.

   F                                G
No Mom, I don't know I called her tonight
Em               F                     G
No, not at home, yeah, you're probably right
              C               A7
Yes I'll take care of myself, no, I'll be alright
     F                 G
I'll go to bed early tonight.

Oh Mama, tell Dad I think of him, Mama
How's Uncle Joe, my puppy Go-Go tell them hello,
Oh I'd better go, but good gosh, I loved her so.

Oh Mama, Don't worry so much, darling Mama
Now Mama don't cry, just say goodbye can't have us both in tears
                   C      Am          D       F                    C
Well Mom, you know me yes I'll always be your baby through all the years.
