Mammy – by Christy Bracken

Mammy

Mammy I’m your baby,
Hug me and caress me,
Nourish and protect me,
‘Cause Mammy I’m your baby.

I want to look into your eyes,
When you tuck me into bed at night,
Smile and kiss you tenderly,
‘Cause Mammy I’m your baby.

They try to tell you I’m not real,
But deep down I know you feel,
Me wriggle ‘round inside of you,
Mammy that’s what babies do.

I want to watch the flowers grow,
The mountains tall all white with snow,
Run and jump into the sea,
You running, chasing after me.

I want to be there when your old,
And keep you warm from winter’s cold,
Together we can make it through,
‘Cause you love me and I love you,
And I just want to be with you.
