Lyrics
Chorus
You’ve got your mother’s big blue eyes,
You’ve got your mother’s teeth, like pearl!
I must confess you are
The image of your ma,
From your nose to your toes to your curls.
The way you ask for pennies, shows
You know just what your mother knows.
And when you grow to be a great big lady,
Like your daddy wants you to,
If you’re half the lady your mother is,
I’ll be mighty proud of you.
