Mammy
A baby's voice
Mammy can you hear me, will you listen to my plea
Mammy please don't do it,take the gift of life from me
If you go ahead and do this thing
It will be to me your baby
A baby you'll never ever hold or see
I have the right to live in the outside world
After the time I have spent in here
You will never ever forgive yourself
And it will only end in a tear
So mammy have some courage and follow your heart
Don't listen to those foolish ones
Do the right thing from the start
So mammy please don't do it
Even as a last resort
Don't even contemplate the ending of my life
By trying to abort
