Lyrics
Mama Don?t You Cry
Mama why are you crying?
Tell me what?s wrong
Did somebody hurt you?
Did you stumble and fall?
Is there something I can do to ease your pain?
I can?t feel the way you feel
But I?ll try and understand
Mama don?t you cry
Everything will be all right
I pray for you every day
I have hope and I have faith
Let me dry your tears away
Mama don?t you cry
Mama why are you crying?
Is there something I can do?
You were always there for me
Now I am here for you
I can hold you close like you used to do with me
Put your head on my heart
And I?ll love you tenderly
Chorus
You were the one who was always strong
Now let me be the one
Chorus
