Oh Mama, Mama don't
Mama don't cry
Don't cry

Mama, don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will be there, mama, though we poor

Mama don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will be there, mama, though we poor

Mama, and so many times
We go few days without food to eat
Mama, so many nights we sleep in a bundle
Like a flock of sheep

Mama, I know what it feels like
To have a holey shoes on my feet
So mama don't cry 'cause I know
I'm gonna make your bitter turn sweet

Mama, don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
Oh, I will be there, mama, though we poor, oh yeah

I admire the time
You stood by me through all of them bad times
Mama, scold me when I've done wrong
And said, 'Gyptian, don't want you to travel in the wrong direction'

I wish every mother in the world was just like you
Your loving is so kind
Oh yes, my Mama
Your loving is so true

So Mama don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I know a better path though we poor

Mama don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will be there, mama, though we poor

So many times
We go few days without food to eat
Mama, so many nights we sleep in a bundle
Like a flock of sheep

Mama, I know what it feels like
To have a holey shoes on our feet
So mama don't cry 'cause you know
I know I'm gonna make your bitter turn sweet

Mama don't cry no more
Oh better days, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes

Mama don't cry no more
No more
Wipe those tears
Wipe those tears from your eyes

Mama you are the one
That make me to become the man I am today
Mama you are the one, you showed me
Sometimes the sky is blue and sometimes gray

Mama you are, I can't find words to say
But I know that you are the one
That gave me true loving like today

So Mama don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will be there, mama, though we poor

Mama don't cry no more
Oh, better days are there for sure
Wipe those tears from your eyes
I will be there, mama, though we poor

So many times
We go through days without food to eat
