To My Mammy - Al Jolson
Mammy mine there's a light divine
In your eyes that shines for me
And that light tells me I'm all right
Though the world may not agree
Whatever they say or do
I know how I stand with you
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
Who cares if the people shout
I'm nothing to rave about
I'm everything
To my mammy
And who cares if the future shows
I may be in beggar's clothes
I'm still the king
To my mammy
The crowd disapproving won't hurt me because
My mammy still loves me and that's my applause
Who cares if they say I'm through
Someday when my song won't do
I still can sing
For my mammy
