Mother Lyrics

Mother

Neil as a mother in Crackerbox PalaceHere's to the happiest days of my life
Spent in the arms of another man's wife
My mother

Oh mother, mother
You're more than just the old man's little woman
Mother, mother
You're the one that I hold dear
Who else could make your bed and tidy up your room
And wash your dirty socks out in between?
Who else, in case you ever got run over,
Would make certain that your underpants were clean?
Oh mother, mother
You're more than just the apple of my eye
You mean the world to me and though I'm far across the sea
I'll come home again to you by and by

You're more than just the old man's little woman
Mother, mother
You're the one that I hold dear
Who else could make your bed and tidy up your room
And wash your dirty socks out in between?
Who else, in case you ever got run over,
Would make certain that your underpants were clean?
Oh mother, mother
You're more than just the apple of my eye
You mean the world to me and though I'm far across the sea
I'll come home again to you by and by
(by and by)

There is no other
Quite like a mother
Except of course another mother
Mother, I'll come home to you again by and by
(by and by)
