Ray Charles - For Mama La Mamma Lyrics

She said: My son I beg of you
I have a wish, that must come true
The last thing you can do
For yo' Mama

Please promise me that you will stay
And take my place, while I'm away
And give the children love each day
I had to cry, what could I say?

How hard I tried to find a word
I prayed she would not see me cry
So much to say, that should be heard
But only time to say good-bye
To mama, oh my Mama

They say in time, you will forget
Yet still today, my eyes are wet
I tell myself to smile
For my Mama

Now soon there'll be another spring
And I will start remembering
The way she love to hear us sing
Her favorite song: Ave Maria
Ave Maria

Yes, the children have all grown up now
But I kept my promise to mama
And I can not guide them anymore
Lord knows, I've done my best, oh
For my Mama

Oh, the family's left, I feel so numb
I should've known this day would come
But still I try to smile
For my Mama

You know, it hurts so much to see them go
They have their lives to lead, I know
Now I will watch their children grow
And hear, again: Ave Maria
Ave Maria

Then I will feel the deepest joy
Yes, I'll kiss them all
For Mama

And I'll feel so proud that I
Made the wish come true
For Mama
Still, this seems
So small, for all
She did for me
Oh Mama, yeah Mama, yeah, yeah
