You stayed here for the weekend,
My Ma and Pa were down by the sea,
I gave you love and smelter,
And any other thing that you'd need, that you'd need,
You only love me when my Mamma's not at home,
You only love me when my Mamma's not at home.
I wanted your affection,
Romance and love and kisses but instead, but instead,
You talked about the weather,
And then pushed me quite politely into bed,
You pushed me right into bed,
You only love me when my Mamma's not at home,
You only love me when my Mamma's not at home.
Early Monday morning I awoke
And found you'd caught the first train, the first train.
But I know when you're hungry,
And you know my house is empty,
I know that you'll be back again, why because,
You only love me when my Mamma's not at home,
You only love me when my Mamma's not at home...
