Al Jolson My Mammy lyrics

Everything seems lovely when you start to roam
The birds are singin', the day that you stray
But wait until you are further away
Things won't be so lovely when you're all alone
Here's what you'll keep saying when you're far from home

Mammy, Mammy
The sun shines east, the sun shines west
I know where the sun shines best

Mammy, my little Mammy
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy
I'm comin', sorry that I made you wait
I'm comin', hope and trust that I'm not late, oh oh

Mammy, my little Mammy
I'd walk a million miles for one of your smiles
My Mammy, oh oh


Mammy, my little Mammy
The sun shines east, the sun shines west
I know where, I know where the sun shines best
It's on my Mammy I'm talkin' about, nobody else's

My little Mammy
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy
Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'
I, I hope I didn't make you wait

Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'
Oh God I, I hope I'm not late
Mammy look at me
Don't you know me? I'm your little baby
I'd walk a million miles for one of your smiles
My Mammy
