My sweet mama, don't let life get you down
I'm not used to seein you frown
The people are waitin, the curtain is risin
You & I are gonna celebrate before long
Oh mama, I feel it comin strong
Oh mama, our sad days are gone
My sweet mama, once I begin
We must accept the prize if I win
Are diamonds the answer
What if we discover
That we were happier when we had nothin
Oh mama, I feel it comin strong
Oh mama, our sad days are gone
My sweet mama, you're makin' yourself grey
There's not much your little girl can say
I'll sing you my best song
To make you feel happy
Tomorrow's going to be a wonderful day
Oh mama, I feel it comin' strong
Oh mama, our sad days are gone
Our sad days are gone
