Mama

Mama she wrote me a letter
saying shes gonna be fine
pls take good care of your sister
i'll be home in three years time
Mama it seems like forever
you've been gone since i was five
they say you were a good teacher
in the same school where i cant survive
**Mama is a maid in london
i want to belive that she's fine
she could be lonely in london
i want to know
why she had to go
i need her,i want to be near her
i've got to be with her
and see to it that we're together once more
My english teacher she told me
she wants to be where you are
Mama shes leaving her family
to earn all the money she wants
London,Vancouver,or hongkong
governess,house kepper ,or nurse
what is to happen to all of us children
with mothers who travel so far
**Mama is a maid in london
i want to belive that she's fine

i want to know
why she had to go
