Songs My Mama Sang lyrics

[Verse 1]
Back when I was a little baby
Mama sang sweet songs to me
We walked the fields in the sunlight
Just a young boy and a whole life left to see

[Verse 2]
When I left my home for the city
I found [what?] I'd never known
I walked the streets there in the moonlight
Just a young man with a hammer on the stone

[Chorus]
Now I'm young but growing older
Seeing what's in this life to see
Alone at night by my bedside
I sing the songs my mama sang to me

[Verse 3]
This old world is filled with sorrow
No more sweet songs or lullabies
Just old [wars?] and deception
I [can/can't ?] hear my mama cry

[Chorus]
Now I'm young but growing older
Seeing what's in this life to see
Alone at night by my bedside
I sing the songs my mama sang to me
I sing the songs my mama sang to me
