Lyrics:

(Peter Green)

Momma dontcha cry now
Momma dontcha cry now
Just say your goodbyes now
But momma dontcha cry
I've been a foolish boy
And I had to break the law just for you

Momma do ya love me
Momma do ya love me
Then momma wontcha kiss me
He was such a naughty man
And I had to put him down just for you

Momma dontcha cry now
No, momma dontcha cry now
Just say your goodbyes now
But momma dontcha cry
I've got to go away
But I promise I'll be back someday

Momma dontcha cry
Momma dontcha cry
Momma dontcha cry
Momma dontcha cry
He was such a foolish man
And I had to put him down just for you
