Mama please dont go

Wont you stay here for one more day

Ive been your boy for so long now

Theres 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, Im going home.

Sha la la la Sha la la la, Im going home.



Something inside makes me scream

How could God take you from a little boy

Hell be alright, hes by my side

Hes no little boy, hes 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 its part of someones master plan

I see you laughing, youre my best friend

Youre the light of the lamb, and I cried

as the angels sing

Repeat chorus twice
