Chorus:
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama will a prince come and take me away
When I said these things I believed in kings
Then I didn't know love could hurt me so
Slowly she replied , tears had filled her eyes
"Baby not so fast, let your young life last"
(chorus)
I sang to her in fun, my teens had just began
My age was not the same, still we played this game
Her eyes were filled with pride, slowly she replied
"Soon enough you'll be a very pretty bride"
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama, will the hurt go away deep inside
When I sang this song my whole world had gone wrong
All my careful dreams had turned to crystal streams
My love didn't last and now more years have past
And left me just one thing: a tender voice that sings
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama
