Al Jolson — My Mammy

Everything is lovely When you start to roam; The birds are singin', the day that you stray But later, when you are further away Things won't seem so lovely When you're all alone; Here's what you'll keep saying When you're far from home: Mammy Mammy The sun shines east, the sun shines west I know where the sun shines best-- Mammy My little mammy My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy I'm comin' Sorry that I made you wait I'm comin' Hope and trust that I'm not late, oh oh oh Mammy My little Mammy I'd walk a million miles For one of your smiles My Mammy! Oh oh oh... (SPOKEN) Mammy... My little Mammy The sun shines east-- the sun shines west-- I know where-- the sun shines best! It's on my Mammy I'm talkin' about, nobody else's! (SUNG) My little Mammy My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy (SPOKEN) Mammy-- Mammy, I'm comin'-- I'm so sorry that I made you wait! Mammy-- Mammy, I'm comin'! Oh God, I hope I'm not late! Look at me, Mammy! Don't you know me? I'm your little baby! (SUNG) I'd walk a million miles For one of your smiles My Mammy!
