Mother are you mad at me

Mother are you scared

That someday you will turn around

And look to find your blue-eyed boy's not there



But mother don't you worry

Mother don't you fret

Cos we've been through so much pain and joy and suffering

For me to forget

The times we had together

Times that were so full (??)

But time's gone by before my eyes

And I realise

Time was often cruel

So mother don't you worry

Mother don't you cry

Cos there'll come a day

When I will take the reins

From your fair hands and wave bye bye

Bye bye
