She wrote me a letter In the early days of December Saying she wasn't happy Where she was Oh that's the bad news yeah That is why today I'm here To take her away from you Everytime you treat her badly It brings back memories and We don't want To see her go through Hurt again so! [Chorus:] Keep on knocking but you Can't come in now She's my mother you know
If she was a bad mother She would have thrown us away Long time ago Even when things got bad She still held onto us all the way When she cries we cry too When she smiles we smile too We were happy all this time Until you came along Everytime you treat her badly It brings back memories and We don't want to see her Go through hurt again [Chorus: till fade]
