[WENDLA] Mama who bore me Mama who gave me No way to handle things Who made me so sad Mama, the weeping Mama, the angels No sleep in Heaven, or Bethlehem Some pray that, one day, Christ will come a-callin' They light a candle, and hope that it glows
And some just lie there, crying for him to come and find them But when he comes, they don't know how to go Mama who bore me Mama who gave me No way to handle things Who made me so bad Mama, the weeping Mama, the angels No sleep in Heaven, or Bethlehem
