Oh mama
By Myrtle Smith
Oh! Momma I wish you were here
So I could hold you, love you
And to show you how much I care
Sometimes I think you were taken
Away so quickly from me
That I felt I was not there
To give you that comfort
You told me you need
Oh! Oh! Momma why
You had to go
Oh! Oh! Momma why
You had to go
Oh! Oh! Momma
Why did you had
To leave so soon
Is it because someone
You held so dear
Were never there
Momma I know you
You wanted to tell
Me everything you
Had on your mind
But you did not
Even get the opportunity
To say Goodbye
You promised to hold
On for me but God
Had other plans
So he released you
From all your pains and
Agony and took
You to a place where
There are no more
Hurting, Sorrow and
Suffering
Oh! Momma Oh! Momma
Oh! Momma Oh! Momma
Why did you have to go?
Oh! Momma we had
Much to talk about
Sometimes I wondered why
I was not there
To show you how
Much I care
Momma I missed your
Laughter and smile so much
I want you to know
No one can ever replace
My momma’s touch
Oh! Oh! Oh! Momma
Oh! Oh! Oh! Momma
