Lyrics
Mammy mine, there’s a light divine
In your eyes that shines for me
And that light tells me I’m alright
Though the world may not agree
Whatever they say or do
I know how I stand with you
Chorus
Who cares what the world may say?
No matter what comes my way
I’m everything to my mammy
And who cares if I lose the race?
No matter who takes my place
I’m still the king to my mammy
How much does she love me?
I’ll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
Who cares if my friends have gone?
You’ll find me still holding on
‘Cause I can cling to my mammy
