[Chorus:]

Mama when my dollies have babies

And I am a big lady

Mama will a prince come and take me away



When I said these things I believed in kings

Then I didn't know love could hurt me so

Slowly she replied, tears had filled her eyes

Baby not so fast let your young life last



[Chorus]



I sang to her in fun, my teens had just began

My age was not the same still we played the game

Her eyes were filled with pride and slowly she replied

Soon enough you'll be a very pretty bride



[Chorus]



Mama, will the hurt go away deep inside

When I sang this song

My poor world had gone along

All my early dreams has turned to crystal streams

My love it was last and more tears have past

And left me just one thing a tender voice I sing



[Chorus]
