Mama she wrote me a letter
Saying she's gonna be fine please take good care of your sister
I'll be home in 3 years time mama it seems like forever
You've been gone since I was five they say you were a good teacher
In the same school where I can't survive
Mama is maid in London I wanna believe
That she's fine she could be lonely on London
I want to know why she have to go I need her
I want to be near he I got to be with her
And see it were together once more
My English teacher she told me
She wants to be where you are mama
She's leaving her family to earn all the money
She wants London Vancouver or Hong Kong governess housekeeper
Or nurse what will happen to all of us
Children with mothers that travel so far
Mama is maid in London I wanna believe
That she's fine she could be lonely on London
I want to know why she have to go I need her
I want to be near he I got to be with her
And see it were together once more
