Mama please don't go

Won't you stay here for one more day

I've been your boy for so long now

There's so much i still have to say



Sky rips open, and i hold my heart in my hand

Like a soldier on his very last day

Cried myself to sleep that night, and i listened

As i heard the angels sing



Chorus:

Sha la la la sha la la la, i'm going home.

Sha la la la sha la la la, i'm going home.



Something inside makes me scream

How could god take you from a little boy

He'll be alright, he's by my side

He's no little boy, he's my pride and joy



Repeat chorus



Summer on the radio and the phone rings

And it was jeanette

She said boy we had to let her go

I begged her no, no not yet



You left six of us to fend for ourselves

I guess it's part of someone's master plan

I see you laughing, you're my best friend

You're the light of the lamb, and i cried

As the angels sing

Repeat chorus twice
