Mom, please tell me what to do,
i'm so disappointed in you
you said those words that made me cry,
and you always wondered why
why i sing my lullaby
Mom, please hurry home to me,
i waited up so patiently
you sit down and you start to cry,
but you never ask me why
why i sing my lullaby
why i sing my lullaby
Was it my fault they lead you in the wrong direction?
was it my fault they didn't show you any affection?
i show you when i start to cry
still you always wonder why
why i sing my lullaby
Mom, why love me if you're cold
you'll just get bitter then grow old
ask me when i start to weep
then i'll tell you in my sleep
why i sing my lullaby
why i sing my lullaby
why i sing my lullaby
why i sing my lullaby
why i sing my lullaby
why i sing my lullaby
