Mother, you had me but I never had you   I wanted you but you didn't want me   So I just got to tell you   Goodbye, goodbye      Father, you left me but I never left you   I needed you but you didn't need me   So I got to tell you   Goodbye, goodbye      Children, don't do what I have done   I couldn't walk and I tried to run   So I got to tell you   Goodbye, goodbye      Mama don't go   Daddy come home   Mama don't go   Daddy come home   Mama don't go   Daddy come home   Mama don't go   Daddy come home    Mama don't go   Daddy come home   Mama don't go   Daddy come home   Mama don't go   Daddy come home...
