Hey Mama

Hey Mama - Monique Whittingham Hey mama, it's been a while you know you said, you'd come see, a very long time ago and I prayed that you'd come visit, just once in a while Oh I really, truly miss the way you've always made me smile. Hey mama, don't you miss your baby girl? I've been writing you letters, just wanting to come home and I never meant, to be bad and I promise you I've changed No toys, no gifts required, I'll even get better grades. Hey mama, it seems you've moved on just a babe, when you left me and now... now I'm twenty one I'm tired of being a bother, I'm now convinced that you don't care No longer am I waiting, no longer - shed I a tear. Hey mama, I finally understand, why never visited and why, why you never came You wanted something better, a good life for me Your body is dying, you have a deadly disease. Hey mama, I found your new address can't wait to finally see you, to tell you all that you have missed I'm taking my family to see, they're as happy as can be I told them every story, I conjured up from memories Hey mama,I was on my way, to work I got a phone call - saying you had passed away Even now you disappoint me, why did you have to go I just wanted to hug and kiss you, never wanting to let go Hey mama, hey! Don't you miss your baby girl?
